Posting on Facebook, Jersey Police said: “Police and Jersey Fire & Rescue are currently dealing with a large fire at Tamba Park, residents in the area are asked to close their windows at this time, there is presently no requirement for anyone to leave their properties and we would also ask that drivers avoid the area immediately around Tamba Park. We'll post updates shortly."
