Tink1991 Â Â 10 #1 Posted September 13, 2013 Just been called by a family member telling me that Bassett's is on fire (just in the area) Â smoke can be seen from miles around the area (can see it from here in the general location), loads of fire trucks at scene and police chopper out above the area, Â any posters with more info about the extent of the damage?
