FIREFIGHTERS were called out after a member of the public reported seeing smoke shooting six feet into the air from a grass verge at Harlow Carr, Harrogate, which appeared to be moving, and smelling a strong smell of sulphur on Thursday.
Crews said the problem was caused by shorting electrical wiring in the area.
