There's been an explosion in Petersfield town centre.

The blast blew-out the window at Twilly's fabric alterations shop on Chapel Street. It left shop owner Tanya shaken and having to manage extensive damage to her shopfront.

It happened just after 11.30am.

Tanya told Shine Radio's Stephen Martin that she had a lucky escape. It was only a layer of film across the window that prevented the shattered glass from hitting her in the face she says.

She says it was quite scary as she was sat right by the window sewing and "the dog went mental".

The explosion was caused by a lorry tyre which blew out in the street outside Tanya's shop.

Project managers who look after the Chapel Street shop units are making the window safe and organising repairs.
