A MASSIVE blaze has engulfed a block of flats in the early hours of Wednesday, June 14, morning in West London.

The Daily Mail newspaper states that London Ambulance Service said 30 people had been rushed to five hospitals around the capital, while at least one resident is still stuck inside the block on the 11th floor, with fire-fighters desperately trying to reach him.
Tim Downie, who lives a few hundred feet from the building, told Sky News: “The acrid smell is just horrendous. The building has pretty much burnt out, there are just a few bits that are still not burning.” In a tweet by Fire London brigade, it says the cause of the fire is not known at this stage.

Meanwhile, fatalities have been confirmed at West London apartment block inferno.
