Fire crews from across the county tackled a major fire at a restaurant in Shrewsbury on Wednesday evening.
The blaze, at The Curry House on Mardol, broke out after 8pm with fire crews and police called to the scene at around 8.30pm.
Firefighters from Shrewsbury, Telford Central and Wem responded to the incident.
According to the co-owner of the business, everyone got out of the four-storey building safely, although this hasn't been confirmed by the emergency services.
Enamual Islam, co-owner of the business, told the Shropshire Star: "Something has happened with the fryer, we don't know what's gone on.
"We tried to put it out, but gave up. It was too much for us to control.
"Everyone is alright, there's a lot of smoke in the kitchen," he continued.
"They evacuated straight away and everyone got everyone out."
Fire crews and police were still on the scene at around 10pm, with footage showing a cordon in place.
Traffic heading out of town was being directed up Roushill, Claremont Street and Barker Street, with the emergency services blocking off Mardol and Smithfield Road.
