Business owners have said they are "heartbroken" after dozens of retail units burnt to the ground during a fire in Glasgow.
More than 250 firefighters were called in to tackle the blaze that started in a vape shop on Sunday, before it engulfed the entire building on Union Corner next to Central Station.
Started in a vape shop. A passer by rushed to the shop, saw the fire, grabbed a fire extinguisher from a nearby shop, and when he went back there where explosions from more vapes. You're not gonna be able to handle lithium battery fires.
Maybe the law should change that vape shops have to be in stand alone units. Many businesses have been lost, plus the Victorian building, and the train station is in havoc.
