FIREFIGHTERS are currently tackling a huge blaze at Manby Motorplex, near Louth.

The blaze started at 5.11pm after an explosion and crews and police raced to the scene.

There are currently ten fire crews from around the area at the Motorplex and police say there is a danger the building could collapse.

Police have confirmed no one was hurt and the fire is not suspicious, it is believed cylinders may have caused the blaze.

But police have also warned people to stay away from the scene. They say people pulling up nearby to see the fire is hampering the emergency response.

There is currently a 200 metre cordon around the scene but the main roads remain open.
