Firefighters were called to a kitchen fire in Ramsey on Tuesday.

Crews from Ramsey and Laxey were called at 10.10am after receiving a report of smoke-logged premises at Gibbs Park.

Teams found a fire confined to the kitchen and extinguished it with high pressure hoses.

Firefighters were there for about 45 minutes.

Station officer Matt Tryer 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.’
