THE Worcester warehouse gutted by fire has begun to collapse.

The walls of the B Smith Packaging factory, Stanier Road, off Cotswold Way, Warndon, have now buckled. Up to 100 firefighters tackled the huge blaze which took hold just before 10am this morning.

Nobody was injured and factory workers escaped just in time.

Relief crews from Hereford and Worcester Fire and Rescue Service are now at the scene to relieve the officers who responded to the initial call.
