Sheep Rescued from Burning Hay Shed in NI

0:00On April 3rd, a big fire broke out at a hayshed on Caskham Road in Bainbridge, but firefighters managed to lead 300 sheep to safety right away. It kicked off just after 9 p.m. on Thursday night, pulling an emergency cruise fast. The Northern Ireland fire and rescue services, large animal rescue team, from Newcastle, handled the sheep rescue, making sure none got hurt in the chaos. By Friday morning, the blaze was still going strong, with more than 40 firefighters and six fire trucks battling it through the night. They're using a telehandler to pull out the burning hay and get it under control, and crews expect to stick around for hours more to wrap this up.
