A factory fire in Melbourne this morning has caused quite a stir, with approximately 150 people being evacuated as a safety precaution. The fire, which started in the early hours of the morning on Spencer Street in Melbourne's CBD, sent thick clouds of smoke billowing into the area. It took a team of 60 skilled firefighters about 2.5 hours to bring the blaze under control.
The building where the fire broke out appears to be abandoned, adding to the mystery surrounding the cause of the fire. As a safety measure, 150 residents from a nearby apartment complex were also evacuated due to the heavy smoke emanating from the factory. The road leading to the area has been blocked off to allow the firefighters to effectively manage the situation and check for any potential spot fires inside the building.
At this point, authorities are still uncertain about the cause of the fire and are not ruling out the possibility of it being suspicious. As a result, a crime scene has been established and fire investigators are expected to arrive at the scene later today to gather more information.
In the meantime, residents and passersby are advised to stay clear of the area and to follow any instructions given by the authorities. Our thoughts are with those affected by this incident and we are grateful for the hardworking firefighters who are doing their best to control the situation. Stay safe, Melbourne.
