Separately, fire services were also called later into the day to Orchard Road at 9.50pm to another fire, where most of the ground floor and all the first floor were destroyed.

The cause of both fires is currently under investigation, and police have not ruled out the possibility that the two may be connected.

They are located less than 300 metres away from each other.
