A FORKLIFT truck caught fire inside a warehouse in Fenland this morning.

Two crews from Whittlesey and Stanground were called to the small blaze at a warehouse in Benwick Road, Whittlesey at 7.40am.

They used a hose reel to extinguish the fire and returned to their stations by 8.20am.

The cause of the fire was accidental and it was believed to have started in the forklift’s electrics.
