Firefighters have extinguished a small fire in a ground-floor restaurant. The floors above the restaurant have been smoke-affected. Firefighters were called to the building shortly after 1pm.
As a precaution, the Gnabra building was evacuated while crews ventilated the smoke from within the building. People were allowed to return to the building about 2.45pm, and authorities expected the nearby roads to reopen a short time later.
No injuries were reported.
