Fire crews were called to a house blaze in Crewe over the weekend, caused by a gas pipe igniting.

On Saturday 18 October, Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service were alerted to an incident on Glover Street, off Underwood Lane.

At 1.27pm, one fire engine from Crewe arrived at the incident, discovering flames coming from the kitchen of a property.

No one was injured in the Glover Street incident, with a gas pipe feeding the oven the cause (Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service).

A fan was used to clear smoke from the Crewe St. Barnabas property, with no one injured in the incident.

A Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service spokesperson said: "A gas pipe feeding an oven had ignited in a kitchen in Crewe.

"Firefighters wearing breathing apparatus isolated the gas supply, which extinguished the fire.

"They then used a thermal imaging camera to make sure the fire was fully extinguished. A fan was used to clear smoke from the property."
