Late one afternoon I returned to the British Museum, intending to take some more photos of people interacting with the sculptures. As I approached, I saw that the street was blocked off, a large crowd of people was milling around, and many fire trucks, ambulances, and police vehicles were parked around. It turned out that the museum had been evacuated because of a gas leak alert; fortunately, nobody was hurt. Still intent on getting some photos, I switched into "artistic photojournalist" mode.
