Quickly on the scene the Longford fire brigade, tackled a very serious fire at a thriving café restaurant called Esquires at the N4 Axis Centre Longford Town. a very busy part of town, Mc Donald’s drive through close by, who in turn stopped that service straight away for obvious safety concerns. The local Garda also quick at scene cordoned of the surrounding area, as the local fire crew tackled the blaze. One of the firemen mentioned a backdraft of fire as they first went in, first time to experience the real thing, but they were well prepared to face it with all the modern equipment, and

they had it under control in good time and made safe. Well done to the lads for there dangerous work, they never know what exactly they walk into, but they still walk in fair play local heroes
