Here’s why police cordoned off area in Southsea as firefighters climbed scaffolding around house
Here’s why police cordoned off an area in Southsea as fire crews were seen climbing scaffolding around a house.
Emergency crews were seen in Western Parade around 9pm on Tuesday dealing with an incident.
One local said: “The police had the area barricaded and there were multiple fire trucks and responders climbing the scaffolding around the house.”
Now the fire service has said: “The call out was due to some scaffolding that had come loose in the wind. A crew from Southsea attended and put in place a footpath and road closure until the scaffolding company arrived and made the boards safe.”
