London Heathrow Airport Shuts After Power Outage

London's Heathrow airport will close all day on Friday following a fire at an electrical substation in Hayes that caused a major power outage. The blaze erupted just north of Heathrow overnight and large teams of firefighters are battling the flames. LHR is by far the biggest airport in the UK and it is a major hub for trans-Atlantic travel as well as connections into the Middle East and Asia. Bloomberg's Guy Johnson reports.
