'Evacuate!' - Worrying scenes as Sky Sports presenter Hayley McQueen films from outside Sir Alex Ferguson gala dinner that saw multiple fire engines rush to Hilton hotel

The Former Manchester United manager hosted a dinner party to raise funds for the Elizabeth Hardie Ferguson Charitable Trust Fund. The NGO was set up by Ferguson back in 1997 in the memory of his mother.

A host of luminaries from various walks attended the gala and among them was McQueen. However, the guests had to be evacuated during the event as several fire engines rushed to the hotel to tackle an emergency. This unexpected event sent the attendees into panic mode for some time but soon they were allowed to carry on with the proceedings with everyone safe and sound.

McQueen shared a video from outside the Hilton hotel where she said: "We had to evacuate the Hilton. It was a wonderful night. Quiet worrying scenes outside the hotel because there are seven fire engines over there. Everyone is wondering, what on earth is going on. We are all having to stand outside. Hopefully, no one is hurt and nothing too serious."

Soon she posted another story where Ferguson is seen addressing the gala and wrote in captions: "All is fine, everyone is safe."

United will be back in action against Chelsea on Sunday in a crucial Premier League encounter with interim manager Ruud van Nistelrooy at the helm.
