As soon as you declare an evacuation, you're going to get some injuries from all the clambering and jostling. I watched some program that showed the emergency evacuation certification of a A380 or 787 or something, and there were a couple of broken ankles and lots of bruises.

And as expected Sky News website has a very informative and totally un-dramatic report for us...
"There's an awful lot of chaos and panic, and it's not clear if anybody's been injured, but people are very, very concerned," Brunt said.
"There's a lot of crying. There are about 20 fire engines at the scene."
