A Sheffield city centre restaurant had to be evacuated this evening after bin store was set alight.

Firefighters were called out to Kommune in Castle Market at 10pm tonight to reports of a blaze.

The blaze is believed to have been deliberately started near an extractor system which then brought smoke into the building.
