Police are investigating two separate “deliberate” fires that engulfed a factory in Noble Park.
Fire Rescue Victoria firefighters responded to a structure fire at Tower Court after reports of flames and smoke at 4.23am on 13 July.
They found a car had “impacted” the workshop.
About half of the 500-square-metre factory was engulfed in flames, an FRV spokesperson said.
“Crews wore breathing apparatus and battled the blaze externally as there was significant risk of collapse in parts of the structure.”
Greater Dandenong CIU detectives say two fires were deliberately lit at the factory in the early hours of 12 and 13 July.
No one was injured in either incident, police say.
“The investigation into both fires remains ongoing,” a police spokesperson stated.
