Firefighters tackle boiler blazes

The Island's fire and rescue service says it's been called out to two boiler fires this morning.

The first saw an oil boiler catch light because of a short-circuit caused by a water leak at a house in Marashen Crescent in Port Erin.

Douglas firefighters were called to a house in Woodbourne Road a short time later when a boiler failed and filled the property with smoke.

Nobody was hurt in either incident, and the fire service says people should have their boilers serviced regularly.
