HKG Tower Evacuated.

Can anyone tell me why the tower was evacuated this afternoon? The ontroller mentioned an explosion, but things seemed to get back to normal pretty quickly. I hope that no one was hurt.
I was on 118.2 at the time, were any other freqs affected?
Regards

Today's SCMP mentioned it was a false fire alarm. Tower closed for ten minutes and eight aircraft held off.
