Bolts fall off the Cheesegrater

Bolts fall off Cheesegrater building in the City of London

Two large steel bolts have broken off the Cheesegrater building in London.

No-one was injured but an area around the base of the 47 storey Leadenhall Building in the City has been cordoned off.

The building is one of the tallest in London, standing at 734ft (224m).

Owners British Land said a full investigation was being conducted and the remaining bolts were being fully examined.

The investigation will look at why one part of one of the bolts became dislodged and fell to the ground at the side of the building within the hoarding line.

(continued, idiocracy skyline will never be the same without its cheesegrater...) :nono:
