A family’s home was destroyed by a devastating pre-dawn blaze at Cranbourne East on 2 June.
Eight people escaped the Thistlewood Place house unharmed, including four children, a woman in a wheelchair and a man on crutches.
An assembly of CFA trucks, including a ladder-platform applicance, were called out from Dandenong, Bayswater, Cranbourne, Frankston, Narre Warren and Clyde about 5.15am.
The fire was brought under control within 15 minutes, stopping it from spreading into neighbouring yards.
Police concluded the fire was non-suspicious.
A CFA spokesman said on 6 June that the fire’s cause had yet to be determined.
