Fire sparked by a tealight
Thursday 14th August 2008, 11:43AM BST.
A fire broke out at a Wolverhampton beauty salon after a customer undressed too close to a tealight.
The woman, in her early 40s, was preparing for a massage and had left her clothes draped over a chair before climbing on to the treatment table.
Flames engulfed her blouse and designer handbag and quickly spread to a set of full-length curtains at Iridium Spa in Tettenhall Road, Newbridge, causing £4,000 worth of damage.
Owner Raeleen Hutchinson heard cries for help and rushed to the rescue with a fire extinguisher during the drama yesterday afternoon. “It was terrifying how quickly the fire spread,” she said.
