Mar 31,2022 3:45 pm

Fire crews in Leeds are tackling a large blaze in a City Centre building.

The Fire broke out on The Top floors of a derelict high-rise building in Cookridge Street, near The City 's Millennium Square , at about 19:50 BST.

A Number of nearby pubs and restaurants were evacuated, The Fire service said.

Ten fire engines are working to extinguish The Blaze and a safety cordon has been put in place as The Fire service said the structure is " potentially unsafe".

Student, Will Dunaway, 18, said he had just left a restaurant on nearby Oxford Place with His Family when he saw The Fire .

" Whatever it was that was On Fire it looked like it was The Top part that was On Fire , the bottom part looked pretty intact.

" There was a lot of crackling and some explosions, like a popping sound.

" Nobody appeared to be in any danger As Far as I could tell. "

West Yorkshire Fire Service said The Police , ambulance service and a specialist response team are also on The Scene .

It's a busy Saturday Night in central Leeds, with the nearby 02 Academy bustling with people for the annual Live at Leeds Music Festival .

Millennium Square has been taken over by fire engines, with police tape blocking off several streets.

The area smells strongly of burning plastics, with a hose on an aerial platform dousing flames in a building next to Leeds City Museum .
