A garage fire is believed to have started accidentally after a lithium-ion battery charger caught alight on Broadley Road, Margate. 

Three fire engines attended and crews wearing breathing apparatus used hose reel jets to extinguish the flames. A smoke curtain was also used to prevent the smoke from travelling into the main property.

No injuries were reported.
