Shoprite in Ramsey had to evacuated this morning after a 999 call was received reporting smoke coming from one of the display ovens.

The incident happened shortly after 8am when two appliances from Ramsey Fire Station and an aerial appliance from Douglas attended the scene.

On arrival crews found a faulty display oven which was smoking badly.

They isolated the unit and checked for fire spread to surrounding areas.

Crews were in attendance for about 10 minutes and the shop was re-opened shortly afterwards.

A statement from the Isle of Man Fire and rescue Service praised the quick response of staff.
