Firefighters called to recycling plant fire in Rugby


Firefighters were called out to a fire at a recycling plant in Rugby over the weekend.
At around 2am on Saturday (January 6) Warwickshire Fire Control received a call reporting waste on fire in a building on Parkfield Road.
Two fire crews from Rugby were sent to the scene.
On their arrival the crews found recyclable material on fire in a single storey warehouse used as a recycling plant.
Fire crews used one hose reel jet, one jet, and a hydrant to deal with the fire.
Recycling plant equipment was utilised to drag out burning material whilst fire crews damped it down.
