Close up video of a van on fire at Morrisons petrol station. *Sorry for the bad quality, it was filmed on a mobile* A supermarket petrol station in West Lothian has been evacuated following a blaze in its forecourt. Firefighters were called to the petrol station at Morrisons in Livingston at 1550 BST as petrol on the ground caught fire from a car which was well alight. At least 28 firefighters were called to the scene as the fire had spread to the petrol pumps. The fire at the station on Alderstone Road, which has been closed, has caused diversions at the Adam Brae Roundabout. A Lothian and Borders Fire and Rescue Service spokeswoman said: "The urgency and concern was due to the fire spreading to the petrol pumps. "We received 12 calls about this fire and because we were on the scene within five minutes we were able to put out the fire out before it set the pumps alight." The petrol pumps were still being hosed down at 1700 BST in a bid to cool them down.
