VIC:Fire causes damage worth $200,000

MELBOURNE, Aug 14 AAP - A fire in Melbourne's outer east has caused more than $200,000
worth of damage, investigators say.

Firefighters arrived at the Marlborough Road brick veneer house in Heathmont about
8.50pm (AEST) on Friday to find it well alight.

The blaze was brought under control within 30 minutes after intensive water bombing.

The roof collapsed during the fire and asbestos decontamination precautions were taken.

A Metropolitan Fire Brigade spokesman said the fire is not believed to be suspicious,
but investigators will determine the cause on Saturday.
