Garages destroyed by fire in St Brelade

Fire officials were working to determine how the blaze broke out at the Belle Vue Estate, with a report into the cause expected to be ready early next week.

Crews spent four hours dampening down the flames after receiving multiple calls that a garage was ablaze at about 10.45 pm on Thursday.

By the time crews arrived at the scene from the St Helier headquarters and the Western Station, the fire had spread to a second garage.

One crew tackled the fire directly while another worked to prevent it spreading to nearby homes.
