Investigation finds 'likely' cause of factory fire

Dozens of firefighters attended the blaze on Sunday

A joint police and fire investigation into a blaze at a brake factory in Derbyshire has found an overheating unit was the likely cause.

Derbyshire Fire and Rescue Service said it was called to the Federal Mogul Friction Products site in Hayfield Road, Chapel-en-le-Frith, at 06:42 BST on Sunday.

The investigation determined the "most likely cause to be accidental due to an overheating dust extraction unit", the fire service said on Thursday.

Upon arrival, fire crews found one extraction unit "well alight", but they managed to evacuate all staff from the site with no injuries reported, and handed the site back at about 15:00.
