Glass smashed onto the ground below as firefighters battled an abandoned building blaze in Liverpool City Centre.
Merseyside Fire and Rescue Service received a 999 call at 3.08pm on Monday, January 16, following reports of a blaze at an abandoned building on Phillips Street, just off Leeds Street. Two fire engines arrived at the scene eight minutes later, where firefighters found a blaze on the first floor of the derelict building.
Two firefighters wearing breathing apparatus entered the building and used hoses to put out the blaze. As firefighters used the high pressure hoses, some already broken glass windows started falling from the first floor onto the ground.
