    Petrol causes garden shed to explode in West Yorkshire

    Wednesday, 5 July 2017 07:00

    By News X @sunriseradiouk

    West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service is issuing advice on the use and storage of petrol in homes and gardens after a shed was destroyed by a petrol vapour explosion.

    A large garden shed was completely destroyed when a small amount of petrol, stored in appropriate containers and garden machinery, leaked.

    It is believed that the petrol vapours were ignited by a faulty fluorescent light fitting causing the explosion.

    The remaining fuel was ignited causing a rapid developing fire that quickly engulfed the remains of the shed.

    Due to the extent of fire damage Fire Investigation teams were unable to establish how the leak occurred.

    The Fire Service released guidance in a statement, advising the public to store petrol in well-ventilated areas and to not overfill containers to avoid spillages.
