STAFF and visitors at the David Lloyd sports centre in York were evacuated on Wednesday night when the fire alarms sounded.
Photographer Richard Doughty was at the centre in Hull Road when the alarms went off and everyone was asked to move to the car park.
However, North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue said it turned out to be a false alarm.
