Summary

Dramatic video footage shows James Welch, 51, a homeless man, rushing towards a burning vape shop on Union Street in Glasgow with a fire extinguisher. He attempted to douse the flames, believing people were trapped inside, and was only meters from the fire when two bystanders pulled him to safety. Seconds later, a massive explosion ripped through the building, sending debris flying. The fire spread to neighboring properties, causing significant damage to historic Victorian structures.
