Two children have been hospitalised after a Port Melbourne hairdresser was firebombed in the early hours of Monday morning. A Porsche SUV was driven into the Bay St shop about 1.30am, with the shop then set alight. The car and shop were destroyed by the fire which police are treating as suspicious. A person living above the store fled the building and was not injured but two small children from a neighbouring home were taken to hospital for possible smoke inhalation.
The home was empty at the time and the fire has been deemed suspicious, with police now investigating. Police were called to Larch St in May over a drive-by shooting and failed attempt on Abdulrahim’s life. Melbourne’s long-running tobacconist firebombings also appear to be continuing, with a Cairnlea shop in Melbourne’s northwest set alight about 6am. “Investigators will look at any possible links to other recent fires,” police said.
