Tap n Tin, Chatham, evacuated after fire alarm

Clubbers were left dancing in the moonlight after Tap N Tin nightclub’s fire alarms were set off.

The club in Railway Street, Chatham were forced to evacuate all of their guests after a party-goer pressed one of the fire alarm buttons.

Drinkers filled the streets with reports of cars being blocked in, and dance battles in the middle of the road. One man was even seen climbing on top of a taxi.

However, they weren’t left outside for long and everyone was back inside within half an hour,

Ellie Cufley, 19, who was at the Rick and Morty party on Monday night, said: “I was just about to head outside downstairs when the fire alarms started going off.

"It really panicked me people started rushing down the stairs and screaming, the music had completely stopped and nobody knew what was going on.”

“When we got outside it was like a street party, it definitely didn’t stop the night, there were people singing and dancing, I don’t think anyone even cared that they had been evacuated.”

A police spokesman said: “We were called to a disturbance on Railway Street at 1.15am and officers attended the scene to ensure that people were safe.”

“At the moment there are no offences that have been reported.”
