Greengrocer's 'emergency gas leak' was just the world's smelliest fruit
Blackpool Gazette
|September 23, 2025
A 'gas leak' that sparked an emergency in Lytham town centre turned out to have been caused by the world's smelliest fruit.
An engineer was despatched to the town after locals reported a "strong smell" of gas in the high street.
However, the unusual source of the pong was discovered when a workmen from the Cadent gas company walked into Strongs Fruit and Veg shop, in Clifton Street.
Store assistants Wai Peng Cheng, 51, and his partner Candy Pooi Kuan Lam, 46, said they hadn't called the engineer and had "no idea" what was going on.
