Charlotte, a third year UWE student, who walked past the scene at 8.30pm, told The Tab UWE: "There were loads of emergency services all the way up the road and groups of people were gathering around trying to get close to Grecian's to see what was going on.
"They said nobody had been hurt though, which is good".

Police and fire crews cordened off the road outside of The Grecian
