Photos of a building on fire in Val d'Isere have been sent to Valdinet.

The building is the apartment block behind Hammeaux de Verde on the Route de la Balme in Val d'Isere. It is a residential building, but at the moment it is unclear if anyone has been hurt.

We will bring more news as it comes in.


**UPDATED**

News has been coming in from a number of sources that four people were taken to Bourg Saint Maurice hospital suffering from smoke inhalation after the Jardins du Val building caught fire yesterday. 

Residents of the apartment building were evacuated with some even having to jump from balconies. Owner of the Blue Note Bar Loise France jumped from her fifth floor balcony into the snow below.

"It was terrifying but we went into survival mode." Said Lou,

"I grabbed my work papers and snowboard, threw them off the balcony, then jumped. Luckily there was 5ft of snow, which cushioned the fall."

It is still unclear how the fre started.

Thanks to Pro Snowboarding Val d'Isere for the picture.
