A FIRE has broken out at a building in Glasgow city centre.
Emergency service crews have been called to Bath Street, near West Campbell Street, this evening.
The Scottish Fire and Rescue Service said the blaze was started by a car fire.
Fire crews have taped an area off. This includes the Q-Park Sauchiehall Street.
Large flames and billows of smoke could be seen coming from the top floor of a building.
One person who was at the scene said: "The fire alarm has gone off a few times when I’ve been in the gym, so this time nobody evacuated right away.
"One fire engine arrived and I turned around and the building was engulfed in flames. I saw a few firefighters run into the building."
Several fire engines are currently at the scene.
A man whose car is in the car park said he is told the blaze is on the second floor of the building and is worried in case he can't get his vehicle back.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
