SAEDNEWS: Emergency services are dealing with a serious incident in Wiltshire after a "massive explosion" at a warehouse on an industrial estate.
Emergency services were called to the Groundwell Industrial Estate in Swindon, England, at around 7:30 pm yesterday following reports of a large fire.
Wiltshire Police confirmed that crews were working to evacuate the immediate area but said that there was no need for nearby residents to leave their homes. Authorities urged locals to stay indoors, close all windows, and avoid the industrial estate for their own safety.
According to Dorset and Wiltshire Fire and Rescue Service, at least ten fire engines and specialist vehicles—including an aerial ladder platform and water carriers—were dispatched to the scene. Firefighters are tackling a large warehouse blaze and working to bring the fire under control.
Several local residents reported feeling an explosion. Chloe Hackett wrote on social media that there had been a “massive explosion” that made her house “literally shake,” adding, “Huge fireball. Really hope there is no one hurt and hope the emergency services keep safe from harm.”
Angela Willis described the incident as “a huge noise” that shook her doors, and said she initially thought someone was trying to break in. She added, “I hope all is okay for those involved and hoping nobody got hurt.”
The cause of the fire is currently under investigation, and authorities continue to monitor the situation.
