Sunshine fire to be investigated

A fire that tore through an auto repair business on Wednesday afternoon will be investigated by Fire Rescue Victoria (FRV) with the cause of the fire yet to be determined.

FRV crews responded to the factory blaze on Judge Street on July 9 at 1.22pm, finding multiple vehicles and mechanical parts on fire.

Crews assisted with evacuations from nearby businesses with no injuries reported.

The incident was deemed under control 25 minutes after firefighters arrived on scene.

The factory sustained significant damage from the fire and will be assessed by the local municipal building surveyor for structural integrity.
