  • A large building fire in Kidderminster prompts a major incident with multiple fire trucks, engines and emergency vehicles responding with siren, horn and lights in Worcestershire, UK.
    At 14:51 on September 8, 2021, emergency services responded to a fire at Betts Metals (and surrounding unit) on Park Street in the centre of Kidderminster. Homes and businesses were evacuated but thankfully there were no reported injuries.
    At the height of the incident over 100 firefighters, 20 fire engines and numerous specialist units from 4 different fire services responded to the incident along with West Mercia Police, West Midlands Ambulance Service, and other organisations such as the Environment Agency.
    Chief Fire Officer Jon Pryce reported that the incident was downscaled to 10 pumps overnight while crews dealt with large amounts of molten metal. You can follow CFO Pryce here: / hwfirechief
