A SHED fire caused a bit of a panic in Bridgwater this afternoon (April 26) as it involved a gas cylinder.
Two engines from the town's fire station were sent to Parkway to reports of shed and fencing on fire at 3.30pm.
On arrival, crews found a six x eight foot shed and a section of fencing were well alight.
A 7kg butane gas cylinder was involved in the fire.
Two breathing apparatus and two Hosereel Jets were used to extinguish the fire, and cool the cylinder, and a Thermal Imaging Camera was used to check the cylinder.
