Geraldton Telstra building alarm a ‘non-threat’

Geraldton Fire and Rescue services responded to an active alarm at the Telstra premises on Chapman Road this morning in an event which turned out to be a false alarm.

Responding crews arrived at the commercial building at 7.50am this morning but were unable to find any cause for the alarm.

Traffic heading southbound on Chapman Road experienced a minor delay during the morning commute as the left-hand lane was occupied by two fire appliances.

A spokesman for the Department of Fire and Emergency Services said the responding team decided the alarm was a non-threat and left the building at 8.23am.
