Emergency services attend fire in Doughiska

Galway Bay fm newsroom - Emergency services attended the scene of a fire in Doughiska last evening.

The blaze broke out in an apartment above Joyce's Supermarket at around 5pm.

Four units of the fire brigade - including one from Athenry - attended the scene and remained there for about 90 minutes.

It's understood the fire was contained to a single property and no one was injured during the incident.

Fianna Fáil Councillor Alan Cheevers says a very quick response from Emergency Services prevented the blaze from spreading into adjoining properties and causing significant damage.
