Dozens are feared dead today after an inferno believed to have started
when a fridge exploded ripped through a 27-storey west London tower
block in just 15 minutes.

and their children out of windows to avoid being burned to death -
others made ropes by tying sheets together as fire engulfed Grenfell
Tower in White City at 1am today.
But a baby tossed from the
'ninth or 10th floor' of the building housing 600 people was caught by a
member of the public and survived with only broken bones and bruises, a
witness has said.
