Crews Called To Feed Mill Fire At Cardiff

 BY IAN CROUCH

Quick work by firefighters has contained a potentially serious fire at a Cardiff feed mill early Saturday morning.

Crews were called to the Baiada facility in Nelson Road just after 4.30am to find smoke pouring from a feed mill.

Firefighters from five stations and the Hazmat unit from Newcastle were dispatched amid concerns the fire could quickly spread.

They've managed to contain the fire to a machine which makes pellets, taking about an hour to fully extinguish the fire and cool down the equipment.

Staff were evacuated as a precaution and no-one was injured.
