CFA firefighters were quick to control a private burn-off that escaped at Werribee South this afternoon (27 September).

 

CFA responded to an out-of-control burn-off on K Road at about 1.30pm.

When crews arrived they found a grass fire that had spread to around six hectares in size, and multiple piles of green waste had caught alight. 

CFA was also supported by Victoria Police, Ambulance Victoria, Fire Recue Victoria and FFMVic. 

The fire was brought under control at 2.12pm but crews will remain on scene for some time blacking out.

CFA had nine vehicles on scene.
