HARLOW: Fire crews tackle motorway lorry fire

8:35am Friday 9th May 2008

FIRE crews were called to tackle a blaze in a lorry on the M11 this morning.

Two crews from Harlow spent around 30 minutes extinguishing the blaze in the back of an articulated lorry between junctions 7 and 8 on the northbound-stretch of the motorway.

Fire-fighters donned breathing apparatus to get close to the smoke-logged vehicle then used a hose-reel jet to bring the fire under control.
