‘We could smell smoke but nobody was panicking’ calm descends over shopping centre visitors

Visitors to the local shopping centre have said its roof caught fire, but added that the overall air has been quiet and calm.

One told The Star Sheffield: “When we arrived people were leaving saying the centre’s roof was on fire. We could smell smoke but nobody was panicking. Others came out saying shops were not allowing people inside.

“But very quickly a guard came out and told everyone that the fire was on an industrial estate so people started going back in. It was all very calm inside the centre. It seems like business as usual in there now.”
