"I just grabbed my [stuff], and I was out of the building. Everybody was frantic. Normally when there is a fire drill we know, but in this case, the staff just ran outside the building saying there was a scare."
"The whole place is taped off, so all staff is outside, and SAPS is on the premises at the moment conducting their investigation."
