Chaos erupted just past midnight when a car was deliberately rammed into The Centre in Livingston — then went up in flames, sparking a desperate emergency scramble.
Firefighters Race to Burning Crash
At 12:20 AM, police alerted fire crews after reports of a car ablaze at The Centre’s entrance. The Scottish Fire and Rescue Service confirmed they launched a rapid response.
“We were called at 00:24 by police following a vehicle on fire at the entrance to The Centre, Livingston,” a fire service spokesperson said.
