Summary

A massive fire erupted in Cheetham Hill, sending towering smoke plumes into the sky and drawing ten fire engines to Broughton Street overnight. Emergency crews deployed specialized equipment, including an aerial appliance, to contain the blaze in multiple commercial buildings. Residents were urged to keep windows and doors shut as smoke drifted through the area. Thankfully, no injuries were reported. As of Saturday morning, cleanup efforts were underway with key roads still blocked off, and authorities are preparing to launch an investigation into the fire’s cause.
