Derelict building fire

At 04.54am on Friday (26) crews from Kempston and Bedford were called to a fire on the ground floor of a derelict school building in Bedford Road, Kempston.  

Firefighters wearing breathing apparatus used a hose reel to extinguish the fire, fans to clear the smoke and a thermal imaging camera to check for hotspots.  

The cause of the fire was deliberate.
