A fire in Earley and fireworks gave firecrews a busy start to the New Year.
Crews from Wokingham Road fire station were called to Liverpool Road in Newtown, Reading – just over the border of Wokingham – shortly after 1am to deal with people letting fireworks off in the street.
The crew then went to an address in Earley to tackle a house fire.
It started in the garage and the team worked hard to contain the blaze and stop it from spreading.
Another crew from Whitley Wood Lane fire station came out to assist and kept it under control.
It happened around 1.30am on New Year’s Day.
