- Fire crews were also called to Wendouree to a home where residents could smell leaking gas.
- Later on, firefighters headed to Sovereign Hill after an alarm went off. This was caused by a lamp being left on.
- Yet another call-out a grass fire meant fire brigades headed out to the Ring Road to battle the blaze.
- And finally, fire crews were called to another burning off incident in Vickers Street Sebastopol. This comes after a recent warning, police would be called to any illegal burn-offs.
