Firemen break into building with tools - includes sound, UK; 1970

A group of firemen, wearing double-breasted uniform, break into a branch of a bank described as the National Provincial Bank (later National Westminster Bank, or NatWest) on Regent Street, bashing a door in with a mallet and an axe, because they cannot wait for someone to arrive with keys during a fire that has spread from a large build-up of rubbish, which had collected on a pavement next to air vents of the building during a refuse collector strike, which had increased pressure on emergency fire services in the UK. A firefighter takes a small bow after successfully breaking the door open. London, UK; 1970. (BBC News, 310/70/02 – 06/11/1970 – AEXZ288W)
