TWO fire crews were called out to a fridge well alight in a suspected arson attack outside a property in Ellesmere Port.

Firefighters attended to the blaze at about 3.20pm today (Monday, October 25) in Fern Road.

Crews, wearing two breathing apparatus, used a hose reel to put out the flames.

The fire had also spread to a washing machine and bins.

A thermal imaging camera was used to check the roof to see if it had spread.

The fire is believed to have been started deliberately.
