We're aware @fire_scot in the #G41 #AlbertDrive tackling a fire. As the hydrants are in use, this is causing low pressure & discoloured water to the surrounding streets. We appreciate your patience & understanding.

“Operations Control mobilised a total of nine fire appliances and two height appliances to Albert Drive in the Pollokshields area of Glasgow.
“The fire had initially taken hold within a commercial premise and thereafter affected a number of dwelling flats above.
“Residents were evacuated. One person was taken to hospital suffering the effects of smoke inhalation. There were no further casualties.
“Crews worked through the night to surround and contained the fire which, due to its severity, caused a partial collapse of the building.

“A total of six fire appliances and two height appliances remain at the scene.”
A Police Scotland spokesman added: "Road closures are currently in place in and around Albert Drive in the Pollockshields area of Glasgow, this is due to an ongoing incident being dealt with by Scottish Fire and Rescue and Police Scotland.
