A young woman has been arrested on suspicion of arson with intent to endanger life following a fire on the sixth floor of a block of student rooms.
A SERIOUS fire swept through the iconic Metropole Hotel on a “dramatic” night in Llandrindod Wells. Smoke was seen billowing out from the luxury 4-star Victorian hotel after the fire alarm was raised just after 6pm on Tuesday, April 13, with local fire crews on the scene within minutes. Firefighters have now confirmed that the fire was contained to a laundry room basement, but said the smoke had spread throughout the rear of the hotel. Firefighters extinguished the fire using ten breathing apparatus, four hose reel jets and four thermal imaging cameras. Mid and West Wales Fire and Rescue Service also deployed an Incident Command Unit to the incident.
