Worst Fire In Years Hits London

A fire at a recycling center in East London erupted Sunday afternoon as more than 200 firefighters rushed to the scene to control the blaze. Investigators haven’t been able to pinpoint the cause of the fire, which released a plume of smoke so large that it could be seen across the city. The blaze consumed the entire soccer-field-size facility. London officials, who called this the worst fire the city has seen in years, said it isn’t affecting any Olympic stadiums and that they still have enough manpower to respond to other emergencies.
