Truck Fire Erupts on A228 Sundridge Hill in Cuxton, Rochester

Kent Fire and Rescue Service swiftly responded to reports of a truck engulfed in flames on the A228 Sundridge Hill in Cuxton, Rochester, earlier today. The alarming incident prompted a rapid deployment of emergency services to the scene.

Upon arrival, two fire engines were deployed, with firefighters donning breathing apparatus to combat the blaze. Utilising high-pressure hose reel jets, the dedicated crews worked tirelessly to extinguish the inferno and prevent further escalation of the situation.
