A fire which broke out in a building in Redland is believed to have been started deliberately, fire crews have said. Avon Fire and Rescue Service was called to Chandos Road just after 7.30am after a fire erupted in the top floor of the building.
Witnesses said they saw three fire engines on the nearby Stanley Road, with a number of firefighters wearing breathing apparatuses. The fire service said crews from Temple, Bedminster and Southmead were called at 7.34am and found a small blaze on the top floor.
Using one high pressure hose reel and two breathing apparatuses, fire crews soon put out the blaze. A fire service spokesperson told BristolLive the incident is believed to have been started deliberately.
