One Firefighter killed 3 missing in Fire in Atherstone on stour warks.

Bbc news is reporting that a suspected arson attack on a warehouse in Atherstone on stour in the West midland, Has killed one firefighter and 3 are missing. Such awful news, My respects go to the families of all involved and it is a timely reminder of the risk our firefighters take for us all.

I hope if this turns out to be arson that the killer is found and brought to justice.

Very sad to hear about these brave men . My thoughts are with the family and workmates.

We had a similar tragedy here in Ireland a few weeks ago where two part time firemen died attending a fire .

Likely related to former RAF Stratford, now Alscot.

The warehouse is reported on the news as being a former aircraft hangar, could anyone expand on that a little ?
