EMERGENCY services attended a fire at an empty building on Rhyl High Street last night (July 31).

Shortly after 8pm, North Wales Fire and Rescue Service (NWFRS) were called to the scene of a blaze on the High Street, at what appeared to be an empty building next to Apollo Bingo.

"Please avoid the area until further notice whilst emergency services deal with the incident."

A witness told the Journal that crew members are "trying to rip the shutters (of the building) open", while another noted "cracks in brickwork" caused by the fire.
