You may have seen us today around Willingham Way, Kingston. We were called to smoke issuing from a high-rise building which turned out to be faulty electrics. Incidents like this attract a significant brigade attendance to ensure we have the right resources on-hand if needed. pic.twitter.com/IIuYNS9k5G
