Fire service in smoke alarm reminder

The Isle of Man fire service is warning of the importance of smoke alarms.

It comes after a kitchen fire at a flat in Strang yesterday.

It happened at about 18:00 BST and took three fire appliance crews an hour to deal with. 

A fire service spokesman said: "Properly installed smoke alarms play a vital role in reducing fire deaths and injuries.  

"If there is a fire in your home, smoke spreads fast and you need smoke alarms to give you the time to get out".
