Glasgow City Council have launched a probe into an explosion on Monday at St Enoch Christmas markets.

The two woman injured were working nearby the Chinese Noodle stall at the markets, which caught fire around 11am.An onlooker described how the pair were nursing burns to their hands and face - while their jackets were left with just the stuffing from inside after the fire had burned off the nylon, reports the Daily Record.

A woman, who rushed to the aid of two casualties, told the Record how she called 999 while her two colleagues, Jade McDonald and Marieanne Lund, ran to the nearby Tesco and Nandos to throw water on the injured women. It is understood one of the women injured has been left with just superficial burns and was discharged from hospital on Monday night. It remains unclear what condition the second casualty is in.
