Multiple fire crews have been called to a electric forklift blaze at an industrial park near Ipswich.
Emergency services were called at about 2.37pm this afternoon to reports of smoke coming from a roof in Sandy Lane in Martlesham.
Suffolk Fire and Rescue Service arrived to find an electric forklift well alight, with five appliances sent to the scene.
A spokesman added that one hose reel jet is being used to fight the blaze.
This follows another incident in Sandy Lane in June when a fire ripped through an industrial building.
