Fire rips through Gosnells quarry

as posted here


More than 20 firefighters were called to a massive blaze that broke out on the top floor of a building at a blue metal quarry at Gosnells last night, causing about $500,000 damage.
The fire began about 8.20pm when a worker using oxy-acetylene equipment is believed to have started the fire at the site in Cockram Road.
The fire spread rapidly, ripping through the third floor.
Firefighters from several stations south of Perth including Armadale, City of Gosnells, Fremantle, Murdoch and Welshpool responded to the fire and took more than an hour to bring it under control.
After destroying the screening shed on the third floor, the fire was eventually extinguished about 10.30pm.
No-one was injured.
