00:00So today we've come down to establish the origin and cause of the fire that
00:03occurred here around quarter to three yesterday afternoon in the top level
00:06unit. What did you find in there? So one bedroom was primarily where the fire was
00:12contained to from great firefighting efforts from the local crews who
00:14attended this scene. Thankfully the fire didn't extend beyond that one unit so
00:19the rest of the unit block is still habitable at this time. The Senators
00:23contributed to our investigation today. He made a search through the facility
00:28up there and crime scene taking a sample from where the dogs work through that
00:32scene. So Xenos is an ignitable liquid detection canine and what that means he
00:36helps us hunt out whether ignitable liquids are present in the scene.
00:40Sometimes they're meant to be there sometimes they aren't and he effectively
00:44contributes to the investigation by letting us know where to take those
00:46samples which are further investigated by the police. So these guys are very good
00:51at their job. They're able to search for a scene very quickly. There's no
00:55scientific instrument that can work quicker than them so they're certainly
00:59valuable to our scene investigations and we're utilised right across the whole
01:03state every day. We regularly train these guys down to 0.5 of one microlitre so
01:09they're able to detect such minute amounts when we're training which
01:13transitions into real-world searches as well.
