The fire and rescue team were called out to a Milton Keynes property in the early hours of today (July 9) after reports of a fire.
In the early hours of today (July 9) a fire broke out in a property located in Stantonbury, Milton Keynes, where the fire and rescue team were called out to.
The incident is reported to have happened around 12:58am this morning. One appliance and crew from Newport Pagnell attended the scene, along with a crew and appliance from Broughton.
Neighbours claim to have seen the flashing blue lights around 1am-1:30am as the crews set out to extinguish the fire.
A report from Bucks Fire and rescue claims the fire was located in a front cupboard of the property.
To extinguish the fire, firefighters on scene used two sets of breathing apparatus, one hose reel, and a thermal imagining camera. A positive pressure ventilation fan was also used, in addition to a gas monitor.
A gas monitor is used to measure the level of different gases within the air and is used to prevent anyone from being exposed to toxic gasses that could seriously poison a person, in some cases they could be fatal.
The crew then made sure to isolate the gas and electricity supply before passing things over to the hands of the gas board engineer.
