A major fire has destroyed a busy nightclub in Birmingham's city centre.
Five hundred people had to be led to safety as the blaze took hold in the early hours at
Edward's No.8 club.
Ten people were treated for minor injuries but firefighters, who praised nightclub staff for their actions, say all inside the club escaped.
Up to 50 firefighters tackled the blaze and prevented flames spreading to nearby apartment blocks. Structural tests will be carried out later.
