Birmingham Airport evacuated
28.07.09
Hundreds of passengers flying out of Birmingham Airport were evacuated yesterday when fire alarms sounded in the departure lounge of Terminal One. Passengers spent about ten minutes outside on the runway side of the airport terminal before being asked to return to the building.
An airport spokesman said: ‘The glass frontage on one of the fire alarms was accidentally broken setting off the alarm so we evacuated the building, but it was a false alarm. There were people waiting to board around 10 flights at the time the alarm sounded.’
