FIREFIGHTERS were called to St Peter’s School in the early hours of this morning to tackle two skips on fire.

One crew from Huntingdon attended the incident at 5.30am in St Peter’s Road, Huntingdon, and managed to put out the blaze using one hose reel.

It was the second skip fire the crew attended in less than eight hours in the town. Two skips were also discovered on fire at Spittals Way at 9.40pm last night.

Both fires are thought to have been caused accidentally.
