Investigation into explosion

An investigation is under way following reports of an underground explosion near a bus station in Dunfermline.

The Scottish Fire and Rescue Service, police and utilities companies went to the scene in Queen Anne Street after the alarm was raised at 12:14am yesterday.

It is thought the blast may have been caused by a problem with electric ducting. There were no reports of any casualties. Traffic in the area was disrupted as roads were closed while emergency services dealt with the incident.
