TWO St Albans bins caught fire over the Bank Holiday weekend.

The first incident happened on Saturday at 11.15am, when St Albans firefighters dowsed a blazing bin in Folly Lane.

And just before 2.30am on Bank Holiday Monday, a crew from St Albans used buckets of water to extinguish a bin fire opposite their station on London Road.

Nobody was hurt as a result of either incident.
