Passengers were reportedly compelled to break the windows of a London Underground train in order to escape as smoke engulfed the carriages.
Videos circulating on social media depict workers outside a train at Clapham Common Station using hammers to smash through the windows, assisting people in exiting the tube.
According to witnesses sharing videos on Twitter, the doors appeared to be unresponsive as smoke permeated the compartments. Some individuals criticized the response of station staff based on the available footage.
