The terrifying moment an explosion erupted from a boatyard fire has been captured on video.
The blaze ripped through the Dock Street boatyard in Clydebank with flames visible from beyond the West College Scotland campus.
Footage shows thick plumes of black smoke billowing from the building before an explosion shocks bystanders.
Emergency crews raced to the scene around 9pm on Thursday evening following reports of the fire.
No injuries have been reported at this time.
An investigation has been launched to establish what caused the fire.
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: "Around 9.05pm on Thursday, June 15, police were called to a report of a fire at a boatyard on Dock Street, Clydebank.
"Officers attended to assist the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service and enquiries are being carried out to establish the cause of the fire."
The Scottish Fire and Rescue Service has been contacted for comment.
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!
