Fire and Rescue NSW (FRNSW) crews have responded to smoke issuing from a warehouse at Lansvale in south-western Sydney this afternoon.

The property in Day Street contains car wrecks.

All employees self-evacuated around 2.15pm.

Fire crews wearing breathing apparatus contained the fire to one car and prevented it spreading through the warehouse.

A 30-year-old man suffered smoke inhalation and has been treated by NSW Ambulance paramedics.

NSW Police closed Day Street during the emergency.

The fire was extinguished and firefighters ventilated the building.

Superintendent Adam Dewberry from Fire and Rescue NSW (FRNSW) said this is a timely reminder that calling Triple Zero (000) for a fire emergency can be the difference between life and death, or a building or other property being saved or destroyed.

The Triple Zero (000) service is the quickest way to get the right resources from emergency services to help you. It should be used to contact Police, Fire or Ambulance services in life-threatening or time-critical situations.
