Factory blaze leaves big bill

AN ESTIMATED $100,000 damage was caused during a factory fire in Cranbourne.
Fire crews from Cranbourne, Narre Warren and Hampton Park were called to the Fastfit automotive business on the South Gippsland Highway about 8pm on 14 January.
Cranbourne senior station officer Phil Charles said substantial damage was caused to the building, vehicles and equipment.
He said there was a lot of heat and smoke but crews had the fire under control in about half an hour.
No one was working at the time of the fire, and it is not being treated as suspicious.
