At 2:54am on Friday, 17 January, we received reports of a fire at a commercial premises on Shinfield Road in Reading.
Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service crews from Whitley Wood, Wokingham Road, Caversham Road, Theale and Wokingham fire stations were sent to the scene, alongside the Aerial Ladder Platform from Whitley Wood Fire Station and two Officers.
Upon arrival, crews found the property on fire. Six Firefighters equipped with breathing apparatus used two hose reels, one jet and the Aerial Ladder Platform to put out the fire. All people were safely accounted for.
They were on scene for approximately four hours and 47 minutes.
One crew will return to the address to reinspect the property later today.
