A BUSINESS in Whitley had cause to call the fire brigade earlier this month, after a forklift truck started burning.
Crews from Whitley Wood, Wokingham and Theale fire stations were sent to the Imperial Way business at 12.38am on Monday, February 6.
The truck was an electric vehicle, and was in the firm’s commercial property warehouse.
It took three hours and 42 minutes for the fire to be extinguished and fire crews wore breathing apparatus.
