Two men were seen entering a warehouse wearing black balaclavas before a devastating fire took over.
Merseyside Fire and Rescue Service (MFRS) crews were scrambled to the Aintree Industrial Park, on Wareing Road, at around 4am on Monday, May 8, following reports of a fire inside a two-storey building. Six fire engines arrived at the scene just minutes after the call and found a blaze measuring around 100 by 30 metres in size.
The complex operation saw crews tackle the blaze in multiple locations around the building, including from above with an aerial appliance. Huge plumes of black smoke poured out into the sky and drifted in the direction of Longmoor Lane.
