FIRE crews were called to tackle an incident involving a house fire in the early hours of this morning.
Crews from Boroughbridge, Knaresborough and Harrogate, including the aerial ladder platform, attended a fire to a house in Minskip at around 1am today.
The fire, which started in a bedroom, caused 100 per cent fire damage to the first floor of the property and smoke damage throughout the house.
Crews used six breathing apparatus sets, two hose reel jets, door enforcer, 9m ladder, thermal imaging camera and small tools. They also gained access to a neighbouring property to check for fire spread.
The cause is believed to be a candle.
