Residents are concerned about the cause of a fire that broke out in a derelict building, with one stating she thought it could have been the result of bad behaviour. Crews had been called following a fire on Faraday Road in Lenton and the fire services say it was a small rubbish fire that started on the ground floor of a derelict building.
Nottinghamshire Live went to Faraday Road to get local residents' impressions of the incident. Student Leah George, who lives near the road, said: “It could have been antisocial behaviour. I know it happens, especially in the student areas.”
Student Rose Shepherd witnessed the crews going to the fire location, however, she was also unable to see the fire. “Lots of fire engines came down Cycle Road, and Faraday Road was closed up to Cycle Road," she said. I could see lots of flashing lights from my back window for about an hour or so.”
