Reports of smoke issuing from a communal bin store in East Cowes led to the turnout of 2 fire appliances last night (Monday), but it transpired to be kids smoking cannabis.
A concerned member of the public alerted Hampshire & Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service to the smoke on Monks Walk, off Beatrice Avenue, at 21:37.
2 appliances from East Cowes and Newport were mobilised to the scene.
Upon arrival, entry was made to the bin store where 2 youths were discovered smoking drugs. They were swiftly told to be on their way.
Positive pressure ventilation was used to rid smoke from the building before crews stood down from the incident.




























































































Parents must be so proud!!! On second thoughts, they would be angry for not sharing!!
Kids smoking cannabis. Don’t they know it kills brain cells and can have a detrimental effect on their mental health?
Suppose they think it’s cool smoking green
Smoke weed every day
yeah i can hear you coughing and wheezing
I know you do. If I can smell the cannabis odour that comes off you from thirty feet away as others can then perhaps you ought to shower and wash your clothes after every smoke before the powers that be decide to nick you when they have nothing better to do.
Hope you never have kids..
Still Dre
Yeah, like a pathetic loser. All weed does is hide your problems because people can’t be bothered to face up to them like a wimp. The smell is awful as well. When I smell that near a house I just think low life home.lol
Lol smoke weed every day
Waste of space muppet…lol
What a wonderful addition to our society this children will likely become as entering adulthood.
No small wonder business can’t get decent staff, as the young live their lives doing what they want, be it drugs, drink, or peering at, and living their pointless lives through a screen at others living a fictional life in films or silly videos.
Cut the child benefits to the bone, and ensure that those on benefit with children are never ever better off than anyone in the lowest paid work.
Otherwise it pays to breed unwanted, uncared for and useless to society future hapless parents, with each generation becoming worse than the last
EXACTLY WHAT HITLER WOULD HAVE SAID
And your comment is ‘EXACTLY WHAT A SCOUNGER WOULD SAY’ two can shout Bill.
IT WOULD APPEAR YOU SPELT SCROUNGER WRONG.
GET A JOB.
Well observed but no need to be an idiot about it. Total muppet comment. Lol
Totally agree. Damn scumbag society is what it is now. People who smoke weed need all their benefits cancelled so they can face the real world and grow up. Pathetic losers….all of them.
Why were their details not taken and charged for cost of call out ?. Bet it was a high moment for all.
So many nosey parkers on this little island of ours.
You can’t fart in Bembridge without someone in Freshwater complaining.
couldnt agree more!
Move then, we don’t want your kind here..
Parents take drugs, so their kids do…
Some people should never be allowed to breed…
can work the other way, some kids look at their parents and think I ain’t gonna end up like that sack of shit
Blimey I am surprised someone didn’t complain about the smell. Shame the Fire Brigade cannot charge people for a call out in these circumstances, probably won’t deter them but at least some cost of 2 crew and waste of time could be recouped. Perhaps now the police are aware they would add it to their daily patrols!!
I remember when you got 6 months for possession. Even used to scrape out your pockets looking for traces. Good old daze.
I suppose it beats smoking a “Woodbine” behind the Cycle Shed .
Or Park Drive…
Should be charged for the call out ….
Seriously start with cannabis , then get dopamine high ! Next time wow then need more it’s like any addiction, once is not enough, then stronger substance is needed to get hit dopamine is a very nice hit but it soon turns into brain fuddled fog …
Seen 2 many people get sucked in ..
I also know those that use it for medical reasons but if regulated ,no problem ….
I agree. Anybody who has avoidable fires should be charged by the fire brigade. Even if deemed not suspicious, like Ventnor seafront recently. Bad site management created a bonfire waiting to happen. Rich owner gets house quicker, elderly pensioners nearly died
These dope fiends are getting younger and younger! I think it’s terrible.
I’m surprised they weren’t asked where they got it from, seeing all the publicity of cracking down on County Lines.
We all know ur a pot head simon come on just admit it
Smoke weed and drive is the best
Wake and bake and drive better to drink first
Anything to take the edge off the day,
don’t drink and drive, you’rl spill it.
The lovely Miss Sensible gave me the idea she smoked up all the time
It’s a shame the fire brigade didn’t charge the owners of the old arcade site in Ventnor. It definitely wasn’t suspicious, just as the owners said the police would conclude, but negligent management of the property risked the lives of locals. Shame all the bats roosting there died, but the blaze saved them a costly battle with The RSPCA.
What are all you retards going to moan about when it’s legal??? Its legal in more than half of the WORLD?
no point ringing the police to get them moved on as they won’t turn up so ring the fire brigade instead. the person that made the call should have been charged for wasting the emergency services time
