A gym in Melbourne’s south-east has been gutted by fire overnight, as arson investigators look into whether the blaze is connected to 11 other recent fires.
A gym in Melbourne’s south-east has been gutted by a deliberately lit fire that police say could be connected to a spate of firebombing attacks they believe were carried out by organised crime groups.
Police said on Sunday they were investigating whether the arson attack was linked to a spate of recent firebombings by gangs., including the torching of Collingwood supermarket Sonsa Market on June 22.. Police believe the man hasn’t been a patched member for a number of years but remains connected to the bikie club.
“We don’t know whether it is linked to the previous series [of arson attacks], we won’t rule anything in or out at this stage.
