Multiple crews from the Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service have responded to a potential incident at the Royal Mail depot in Newport this evening (Monday) – but it has been deemed a false alarm.
2 appliances, an aerial ladder platform and the Incident Command Unit were called to the scene off Riverway Industrial Estate at around 18:05.
Following an inspection of the large scale depot, all resources have stood down and returned to station.

It is unknown at this time what sparked the large scale response.
