FIRE crews were called to a flat last night after reports of a “dangerous structure” hanging off the building following Storm Eunice.
Crews from Eastbourne and Hastings dealt with a section of metal track dangling down from the third floor of Kinross Court in Upper Avenue, Eastbourne at 5.17pm yesterday.
A cordon was also put in place while East Sussex Fire and Rescue Service (ESFRS) made the structure safe.

“Firefighters made the area safe and cordoned off the area to the public to deal with the metal track hanging down from the third floor. Crews left the scene at 18.20.”
