Authorities are currently conducting investigations following reports of a major fire that ravaged a dry cleaning establishment in Sydney's Northern Beaches, with several explosions being heard during the incident. The fire, which occurred at around 9:30 pm yesterday on Old Pittwater Road in Brookvale, prompted the response of both firefighters and police who are now working tirelessly to determine the cause of the blaze.
According to officials, the flames had already engulfed the building by the time they arrived on the scene, requiring the support of sixty firefighters to combat the inferno. As the battle against the fire raged on, multiple explosions could also be heard, adding to the already chaotic situation. At one point, the structure itself was in danger of collapsing, forcing firefighters to retreat for their safety.
To ensure the safety of the public, an exclusion zone was set up and the road was closed as firefighters worked diligently to contain the flames and protect nearby establishments. Thankfully, after about two hours of intense effort, the fire was finally extinguished. Fortunately, no injuries were reported, although the dry cleaning business itself was completely destroyed by the fire.
The road closure lasted until midnight, after which it was finally re-opened, allowing traffic to resume its normal flow. However, crews remained on-site until this morning to ensure that the fire had not reignited. Although the cause of the fire is still being investigated, authorities are relieved that no one was hurt and the situation was brought under control in a timely manner.
