HSE staff evacuated after blaze breaks out in Cork office building
It is suspected that the blaze may have been sparked by an electrical fault in a photocopying machine.
A fire brigade spokesman said four units were sent to fight the blaze at the HSE’s Áras Sláinte (formerly Farm Centre) offices at Dennehy’s Cross. The alarm was raised at 10.53am and when the first unit arrived four minutes later they saw flames coming out of the window of a photocopying room at the rear of the first floor.
