Smoke could be seen across Teesside from a fire near Cargo Fleet Lane in Middlesbrough this afternoon.
Fire crews and police officers are currently at the scene near Ormesby Table Tennis Club.
It is unknown what has started the fire at present, the smoke from which could be seen from as far away as Hartlepool.
One witness said: “It seems under control now but I have never seen so much smoke.”
It's believed the blaze involved a sewer pipe on a building site.
Initial indications were that the fire had been started deliberately.
Two fire appliances - one from the Marine station, the other from Middlesbrough - attended.
