Fire crews from Douglas and Laxey have extinguished a tractor fire in Onchan.

A call was received just after 9am today to reports of a fire at a farm near the Begoade Road

Fire crews arrived to a tractor well-alight - they used high pressure hose reels and a jet to extinguish the flames and prevent heat setting fire to nearby silage bales.

The cause of the fire is believed to be an electrical fault.

Crews were in attendance for approximately 90 minutes.
