Shepparton house fire

A Fire Rescue Victoria spokesperson said three FRV trucks and a CFA unit attended the blaze, with the house well alight when firefighters arrived.

The blaze started in a front room of the house and spread into the roof, the spokesperson said.

It took firefighters until 6.45pm before the fire was deemed under control.

Police said the house was unoccupied at the time, and no-one was injured during the incident.

At 7pm on Tuesday, firefighters had left the scene but police remained and the road was blocked off between Wills St and Burke St.

The fire was initially treated as suspicious, but police said on Wednesday afternoon it was no longer being treated as such.

An FRV fire investigation team arrived at the house about 9am Wednesday to investigate the scene and determine the cause.

Anyone who witnessed the incident, or has vision or information, is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or online at www.crimestoppersvic.com.au
