FIREFIGHTERS are dealing with a blaze in Bradford this evening after a building has caught fire near the bottom of Thornton Road.
Pictures and videos, including the video below sent to the T&A by Shauna Bairstow, show clouds of smoke across the sky, although the cause of the fire, or whether anyone is hurt, are not yet known.
A spokesperson from Bradford Fire Station confirmed that the fire is on Norcroft Street, just off of Thornton Road.
There are eight fire engines at the scene, the spokesperson said, after a building caught fire in what is a largely industrial area.
The fire has caused diversions, according to First Bus:
