Eleven people have been taken to hospital after a fire broke out at a five-storey building in London.

About 160 people were evacuated from Emperor's Gate, in South Kensington, after the fire spread from a ground-floor flat just after midnight.

London Fire Brigade (LFB) said the blaze, which had spread to the roof of the building, was now under control.

It said the people taken to hospital were treated for the effects of smoke inhalation.

On Friday morning, 大象传媒 Radio London's Riz Lateef heard the latest from our reporter at the scene.
