A Sainsbury's store in Sevenoaks has reopened after being evacuated this morning.

Staff and customers were led from the shop shortly after 9am.

A Sainsbury's spokesman said it was a short, precautionary evacuated due to a problem with one of the freezers. They did not specify if it was a gas leak.

Staff and customers were let back in shortly after 10am.
