AN electrical fault sparked a house fire in Sale at the weekend.

Three engines from Sale, Altrincham and Stretford scrambled to a two-storey mid terraced house in Holly Drive on Saturday April 8.

Crews used four breathing apparatus and two hose reels to bring the fire under control and were at the scene for almost one and a half hours.

The fire is believed to have started due to an electrical fault with a dishwasher.

No-one has been reported as injured.
