A church in Glasgow city centre has been ruined by a blazing inferno in the early hours of this morning.
The alarm was raised at 2.40am as the Roman Catholic Parish Church of St Simon caught fire.
Firefighters have urged nearby residents to keep their windows and doors closed while properties too close to the church have been evacuated.
One witness wrote on social media: ‘We got woken up by walkie-talkie sounds, fiancé went out and the church across the bridge has been completely destroyed in a fire within half an hour. St Simon’s was beautiful to look at.’
