Factory fire forces out workers

MORE than 100 workers were evacuated after a fire broke out in a Keysborough factory on Monday afternoon.
CFA firefighters took only a few minutes to extinguish the blaze in the Pacific Drive factory’s external extraction system shortly after 3.30pm.
Six trucks from Keysborough, Dandenong, Noble Park and Springvale CFA attended.
A CFA spokesman said the cause of the fire was unknown.
