FIREFIGHTERS from across the region were scrambled to a false alarm in Clifton Moor.
Crews were called to reports of an “unidentified substance” leaking from a 1,000-litre container on a transit van in Stirling Road.
But when the substance was tested it was discovered to be water, a fire service spokesman said.
Firefighters were called from Tadcaster, York, Harrogate and Acomb stations to the scene at about 8pm on Sunday.
