In Doubleview, a suburb of Perth, two separate house fires have caused significant challenges for emergency services. Both incidents were reported in close proximity to each other, specifically in the Huntriss Road area, around the same time. Firefighters from the Department of Fire and Emergency Services responded swiftly to bring the blazes under control in approximately 30 minutes, preventing them from spreading to neighboring homes.

One fire broke out in a unit on Huntriss Road while the other occurred nearby on Moorland Street. The aerial footage from the scene depicted firefighters working on the roof to contain the flames and save adjacent properties. There is visible damage, with a part of the roof of one house collapsing and an e-scooter outside another house completely incinerated. As emergency teams work to assess the full extent of the damage, a structure fire advice has been issued, alerting the community of potential hazards due to smoke.

As investigations into the cause of the fires are initiated, local authorities are engaging with residents to provide updates and support. The swift response of the fire crews highlights the importance of emergency services in managing such incidents and ensuring community safety. The outcome of the investigations may provide further insights into fire safety measures to implement in suburban areas to prevent similar occurrences in the future.
