Big fire at some sort of scrap metal/car wreck place Hope Valley. Live cross on Ch7 news from chopper. I was passed by Belmont trucks on Canning Hwy South Perth about 17:30, the LT had what looked like a foam trailer attached.

This baldivis boy would of been happy turning out with the 4.4 if he wasn't in mandurah at the time.
The fire at naval base is contained to an area 50m x 40m. Full of old car bodies and the like. Will be there for some time. Startig to round up as many 7000 and 9000ltr bfs appliances due to lack of water. some 60 firefighters from both agencies as well as st j and police in attendance
The fire at farmer jacks is out. All bar 1 truck have returned to station. Was a cooler that went up sending smoke through the building. 8 in ba searching. Nil injuries
Yeah i got a feeling James and Chris will be able to give us the best info on the Naval Base fire as they possibly went... I was down there for a couple of hours.
Went to Farmer Jacks fire afterwards and got a few shots. $250,000+ damage.
