Emergency services are on the scene following reports of a fire in the roof of headspace Monday morning.

A Queensland Fire and Emergency Services spokesman said two crews attended the “government-owned building” at 11:48am located on the corner of Ross River Rd and Riverway Dr.

He said crews were working to isolate power as smoke issued from the roof where the fire was located.

Queensland Ambulance and police were also on scene, with fire crews still managing the incident.

A Queensland Ambulance Services spokeswoman said it was unconfirmed whether they were treating any patients.

More to come.
