FIREFIGHTERS from Weymouth attended a property fire in the town last night.

Two crews attended the fire at a domestic property on Salisbury Road in Westham at 10.40pm.

On arrival, firefighters found a small fire in a ground floor kitchen, which is thought to have been caused by a plastic bowl being used in a microwave.

Firefighters extinguished the fire and remained on scene to ventilate the house, leaving just after 11pm.
