Firefighters, paramedics and police arrived on scene just before 9am. It is understood workers at the store had already disconnected fuel supply to the site as a precaution.

IPSWICH Mayor Teresa Harding will not be deterred in her attempts to secure federal funding for the cityâs key projects despite an apparent snub under the 2021-22 budget.
While admitting she was âdisappointedâ following Tuesdayâs result, Cr Harding instead vowed to continue campaigning for investments into local infrastructure.
Key projects including vital upgrades to the Cunningham Hwy between Yamanto and Ebenezer Creek, a proposed Springfield-Ipswich rail line and upgrades to the North Ipswich Reserve failed to gain a mention in the $1.6 billion spend.
