Three men die in White City building fire

Three men have died after a fire burned down a building in White City, west London.

Firefighters rescued the men from the single-storey pavilion building on New Zealand Way after the blaze broke out shortly before 19:00 BST on Saturday.

The London Ambulance Service treated nine people at the scene, where two of the men were pronounced dead. Three people were taken to a major trauma centre, and the third man later died in hospital, London Fire Brigade (LFB) said. It is not clear who occupied the building, which sits behind Shepherd's Church and White City Community Centre.

"Sadly, three people have died following a fire on New Zealand Way, White City," LFB's assistant commissioner Pat Goulbourne said at the scene.
