Could an electrical fault be behind Morley Markets blaze?

Investigators are probing whether a fire which razed the Morley Markets in the early hours of Wednesday morning may have been sparked by an electrical fault.

Bishop St Newsagency owner Peter Nguyen was heartbroken at the blaze.

“It’s not just a business, it’s our lives, it’s our home, we had so many personal things there, so many friends, so many customers,” he told media.
