Excitement at Phillip BP?

It appears that the BP Service Station on the corner of Melrose Drive and Botany Street in Phillip was evacuated this morning.

A bit before 8 am, one fire truck was in attendance, while everyone who appeared to be a civilian stood around the very edge of the property; I also couldn’t see any cars in the station itself.

Unfortunately I didn’t have time to stop and find out what was going on, or take pictures. Perhaps someone else has more of the story?

maybe someone smelled petrol or gas?

Emergency gas button activated due to leak on a vehicle while filling maybe? Sounds like the procedure when someone pushes the Emergency stop button. But then I could be wrong.
