A CAFE in Curry Rivel had to be evacuated following a fire.
Fire engines from Somerton, Taunton and Martock were sent to a cafe on the High Street at 10am to reports of an electric heater on fire.
On arrival, the officer in charge confirmed the fire appeared to be out, fire crews made sure all utilities were isolated and the premises was evacuated.
The property was also investigated with a thermal imaging camera.
The fire was accidental and was believed to have started due to a faulty timer on the electrical heater.
