FRV brings Pascoe Vale South house fire under control

Fire Rescue Victoria (FRV) crews responded to several calls of a house fire at Waverley Parade in Pascoe Vale South this afternoon.

Crews arrived on scene within five minutes to find smoke and flames issuing from the rear of a house, so the response was escalated.

FRV crews donned breathing apparatus and began attacking the fire as well as preventing any further fire spread throughout the house, as well as protecting neighbouring properties.

There were no occupants home at the time of the fire.

The fire was deemed under control by 1.06pm.

The cause of the fire is not yet known and it will be investigated by FRV specialists.

Firefighters will remain on scene to ensure the fire is fully extinguished.
