News Story

Members turned out early today to a 2nd Alarm fire call at a laundromat in O'Donnell Avenue, Mt Roskill. The fire badly damaged the building and destroyed washing machines and driers in one part of the premises: other machinery and fittings were damaged by heat and smoke. Firefighters had to access the roof void to snuff out last pockets of fire. It's the second laundromat fire in the district in recent weeks - the first in Sandringham was put down by fire investigators to spontaneous combustion caused by closely folded laundry stacked while warm. Investigators are looking into today's blaze. Members lit the premises and provided scene safety during firefighting operations.
