'Major incident' averted as Cork city centre shop evacuated
The quick thinking of staff during a fire in a Cork city centre department store on Saturday afternoon 23rd November helped to avert what could have been a major incident, a spokesperson for Cork Fire Brigade has said. It is understood that an air handling unit on the roof of Dunnes Stores on Patrick Street overheated and went on fire around midday on Saturday.
The alarm was raised by staff in the shop and the five-storey premises, which was full of pre-Christmas shoppers at the time, was quickly evacuated. Responding within three minutes of receiving the call, four units of Cork Fire Brigade arrived on the scene, with crews from Anglesea Street and Ballyvollane manning three water tenders and a hydraulic platform.. ~EchoLive.ie
