Major London hospital partially EVACUATED due to fire

A HOSPITAL in London has been partially evacuated after a fire started on the first floor.

Guy's Hospital in London Bridge has been reportedly part cleared of patients and staff because of the blaze on the first floor.

Four fire engines with 25 crew members were called to the site just before 4pm.

Firefighters are investigating the cause of the blaze.

BBC journalist Nalina Eggert, who works as a BBC journalist, said she could smell smoke and was forced to leave immediately.

She told Southwark News: “I could smell smoke and it’s been evacuated.

“I can see four fire engines here – one’s around the corner outside the Sainsbury’s and the other three are outside the Southwark Wing exit – and multiple hoses are being deployed."

The central London site is next to the Shard.
