Around 60 residents of a Erith tower block have been evacuated due to a gas leak.
London fire crews were called to Jacob House on Kale Road at 1.46pm on October 16 to reports of a gas leak in the plant room on the ground floor of the 12-storey tower block.
A cordon was put in place around the building as a precaution.
The leak was isolated by the gas board and firefighters then ventilated the block before residents were allowed back in the building at 2.48pm.
No injuries have been reported.
