THREE people were evacuated from a first floor flat after a fire broke out in the shop below on Monday.

Fire crews were called out to the blaze at the Homemaker electrical store in George Street, Warminster at 12.23pm.

Smoke was pouring out of both floors, but the fire was later discovered to have come from the shop's electrics.

Warminster Station Officer Chris Trimby said: "Fire crews used extinguishers and carbon dioxide to tackle the fire."
