Fire delay ‘highlights dangers of city cuts’ (From York Press): THE FIREFIGHTERS’ union claims a five-minute “delay” in getting to a fatal York blaze has highlighted the risks of planned reductions in city-centre fire cover.
The Press can reveal that a fire engine from Acomb was the first to reach the blaze in Skeldergate on December 1, when a 91-year-old man is believed to have died from smoke inhalation. It took about seven minutes to get to the scene.
