May 17, 2025

TWO firefighters and a member of the public have died following a large fire at a former RAF base.

Oxfordshire County Council said the two firefighters died while tackling the blaze at Bicester Motion on Thursday.

London fire commissioner Andy Roe said one of the fatalities was a leading London firefighter and sub-officer who was on retained duty with Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service (OFRS).

Mr Roe said another of those who died was from OFRS.

Two further OFRS firefighters suffered serious injuries and were in hospital, the council added.
