A suspicious fire at a church in Doncaster East is not linked to three blazes at Melbourne Catholic churches historically connected to paedophile priests this week, police believe.
Emergency services were called to St David’s Anglican Church on Doncaster Road just after 2:30pm on Friday, after witnesses reported smoke coming from the building.
The Metropolitan Fire Brigade said the fire started in a storage room and took 10 minutes to bring under control.
Police are investigating the cause of the blaze, which was contained to a small area of the building, and keen to speak to anyone who may have seen anything suspicious in the area.
