My heart sank when I saw this.( grenfell tower ) Hopefully nobody is badly injured.
I didn’t know there was a tower in Dunmurry, it’s a tad up from where I live. I think everyone’s okay?
From BBC News On-line, Geoff Sommerville, group commander with the Northern Ireland Fire and Rescue Service, said firefighters rescued a man from the flat in which the fire started.
He said they believed the fire was “accidental” and that the man “was making toast at the time”. -Yikes!
Fingers crossed everyone’s ok.
Fire alarms designed to sound only in the flat on fire? Heavens. Thank heaven there were no deaths.
