Notes
1 - tables show main injuries only, priority is given to 'burns' and being 'overcome by gas or smoke'.
However, if both these injuries occur, these are shown together
2 - if 'physical injuries' and 'shock' occur, then physical injuries is recorded
3 - refers to persons who are not members of the fire and rescue service
4 - refers to fire and rescue service personnel
5 - this category is a subset of 'others' - where FRS stated smoke inhalation occurred but not severe enough to be classified as person was overcome
There is a problem
