A FIREFIGHTER checks the scene after a fire in a garage spread to a shed and a car in Selby town centre.
Fire crews were called to the incident in St James’s Terrace at the bottom of Audus Street, just off Gowthorpe, at about noon.
The fire destroyed the garage, caused 50 per cent damage to the outside of the shed, and spread to a Renault car which was parked nearby, where it damaged the engine compartment.
The burning vehicle, which was not the homeowner’s, belonged to a woman from Goole and she was assisted home by police.
Local traders in Gowthorpe said Audus Street was blocked to traffic.
