Description: A total of five fire crews have attended a fire involving a two storey domestic property in Tisbury this morning. The fire was located in a first floor bedroom by the first crews on scene. Further appliances were requested to enable the loft space to be checked for fire spread but it was unaffected. Firefighters used four breathing apparatus, three hose reel jets and a thermal imaging camera to extinguish the fire. Crews responded from Mere, Shaftesbury, Gillingham, Warminster and Salisbury. A pet tortoise was rescued from the property and given oxygen. The occupiers were not at home at the time of the incident.
