Huge fire in Leeds as 'loud explosions' heard and bars evacuated
16.10.2022 - 00:47 / dailyrecord.co.uk
Emergency services are tackling a huge fire in Leeds, with bars forced to close as the area is evacuated.
Images and videos from the scene show buildings lit up by massive flames near a construction site in Millenium Square being evacuated.
The Mirror says people were seen leaving bars with full pints in their hands while smoke billowed into the sky.
An eyewitness wrote: “ Fire in Leeds still not under control. Looks to be spread across multiple floors of the building. Loud explosions coming from the site.”
Another added: "Massive fire in Leeds this eve at the old City Council building near the museum. Loads of emergency vehicles in attendance, looks awful."
Flames were seen spreading to multiple floors of the building as other videos online showed fire crews trying to tame the fire.
Pixel Bar wrote on social media they were told to shut early.
The venue said: " There's a building on fire further down Great George Street that emergency services have responded to.
“No danger to the bar, but following police advice we're closing our doors until further notice tonight and hope to be open again later this evening. Stay safe!”
Unconfirmed reports online suggest the fire was started by fireworks.
It is thought the building is a construction site and was the city's old council building. The Leonardo building is a listed building and currently being turned into student flats.
It is unclear when the fire started, but witness reports started flooding in online just before 8pm.
Yorkshire Ambulance has dispatched its Hazardous Area Response Team to the scene to support local paramedics.
West Yorkshire Police are at the scene assisting with road closures.
