Firefighters were called to a fire involving waste fat at a fish bar in Shrewsbury on Thursday evening.
Fire crews were called to Arki’s Fish Bar in Sentinel Gardens, just off Whitchurch Road, at around 7pm.
Two fire appliances were mobilised from Shrewsbury with an operations officer.
Crews at the scene used two breathing apparatus, dry powder extinguishers, and one main jet with foam to extinguish the fire.
An investigation into the cause of the fire confirmed that it was accidental due to a fire in a waste fat sump.
The fire is the second to happen in Sentinel Gardens in recent weeks. Firefighters tackled a fire involving wheelie bins at The Rural Charity & Furniture Shop on Saturday 4 January.
