FIRE-FIGHTERS were scrambled last night after a chemical spill at a North-East industrial estate.

Crews from Darlington, Newton Aycliffe and Bishop Auckland were called to Aycliffe Business Park, in Redworth Way, County Durham, at 6.25pm after a leak of de-atomised kerosene from a 220-litre drum.

Crews made the incident safe and left the scene at 8.51pm. Two men were taken to Darlington Memorial Hospital as a precaution.
