CONCERNED residents called out firefighters after hearing load bangs near their Bury homes this afternoon.

Youngsters are believed to have caused the noise by lighting aerosol cans on a small campfire in a near-by children’s park next to Palatine Drive.

A crew from Bury attended just after 5.45pm and reported seeing youngsters running away from the campfire.

Crews were in the area for around 15 minutes to put out the fire.
