Yesterday evening, there were reports of vehicle alarms and loud explosions as cars were systematically set on fire. A witness described the rapid spread of the fire through the upper level of the recently constructed car park as astonishing.
Today, there has been chaos at London Luton Airport due to a car park collapse. Approximately 1,200 vehicles were damaged, resulting in the cancellation of all flights until 3pm. Additionally, a massive fire occurred, leading to multiple individuals being hurriedly taken to the hospital.
This morning, the Bedfordshire Fire and Rescue Service is still fighting the fire at Terminal Car Park 2, which is worth £20 million. The fire started last night before 9pm and caused the multi-storey building to collapse.
