Butts Road, Coventry, UK
Shortly before 8.40pm on Sunday 7 July, we responded to Butts Road, Coventry. Six fire engines and a 4×4 brigade response vehicle attended, crewed by firefighters from Coventry, Binley, Canley, Foleshill, Solihull and Bickenhill stations. The first crew arrived at the scene within two minutes of being mobilised. This was a deliberately started fire on the first floor of a two-storey void pub. The fire was extinguished by firefighters wearing breathing apparatus. Everyone was accounted for and there were no casualties. Butts Lane was closed by police colleagues while we worked at the scene. It’s believed to have re-opened later. Firefighters boarded up the property and left the scene at 11.16pm.
