Does anyone know which Colwyn Bay shop was on fire today? Hope no-one was hurt. I had heard that it was the Computer shop -but which one?
The Daily Post website has this report -
"CANDLE SET FIRE TO CURTAINS: A WOMAN was taken to hospital to be treated for minor burns after a candle set fire to curtains at a flat above a computer shop this afternoon.
Fire crews from Colwyn Bay and Llandudno were called to the four storey building on the A547 at Abergele Road, Colwyn Bay, along with a rapid response vehicle and an ambulance.
Police took to Twitter to warn motorists of traffic disruption on the busy road and urged them to use alternative routes while firefighters dealt with the incident just after 4pm.
A Welsh Ambulance Service spokesman said: “We were called at 4.04pm to reports of a fire at a property on Abergele Road, Colwyn Bay. We sent a rapid response vehicle and an emergency ambulance to the scene, and a woman in her 20s with minor burns was taken to Ysbyty Glan Clwyd.”
A North Wales Fire and Rescue Service spokeswoman said: “The fire was caused by a candle that ignited nearby curtains.”"
