A mum's house "shook" as a gas leak caused a wall to go up in flames.
The mum said her electricity tripped and her whole house shook after a gas leak ignited on Boundary Lane in Everton shortly after 2am this morning, Tuesday, August 2. Merseyside Fire and Rescue Service (MFRS) were dispatched to the scene after reports of a fire close to a number of houses.
Several homes were evacuated by fire crews as a precaution and a cordon was put in place at both ends of Boundary Lane. A wall could be seen this morning blackened with scorch marks caused by the leaking gas igniting.
