Fire at bubble tea shop in Wolverhampton closes busy junction
Firefighters have battled a blaze at a bubble tea shop in Wolverhampton this morning (July 31) which involved cardboard and paper in the business's basement.
The Princes Square junction was cordoned off by the emergency services after reports of a fire in a four-storey building in Princes Square at around 9.45am.
The blaze was confined to the basement of the Taiwanese bubble tea business, Multea Choice.
No one was hurt during the fire but the whole of the four-storey building has been affected by smoke. Around 20 firefighters tackled the blaze which is now under control.
Witnesses at the scene, 33-year-old Aaron Singh and 64-year-old Marie Taylor, both from Wolverhampton, praised the fire service for their quick arrival on the scene.
