Twelve fire engines and 81 firefighters and officers are attending a fire at an industrial unit of two floors on Midland Terrace in Park Royal.

Station Manager Dan Hallissey who is at the scene said:

"Around 10 people have been evacuated as a precaution from nearby homes. There is a lot of thick black smoke in the local area so we're asking nearby residents to close their doors and windows."
