AN 'explosion' in Renfrew could reportedly be heard from the centre of Glasgow this morning and caused plumes of black smoke to travel across to the city.
Fire crews rushed to Meadowside Street at around 12.48am on Friday to reports a number of vehicles were on fire.
The blaze spread to an adjacent roof, and local residents on social media reported hearing 'metallic sounds' for some time afterwards.

Four appliances and an aerial unit were deployed to the scene, and the fire has since been extinguished.
