A QUICK-THINKING security guard is being lauded for helping to save the Biloela Medical Centre Pharmacy, after an electrical fault sparked a blaze in the store on Fri night.
In a post of the pharmacy's Facebook page the store's management noted that it would not be open for trading this week as a result of damage sustained during the fire.
"Fortunately no one was hurt and we are lucky that the damage was contained just to our store," the store's owners said.
"All scripts on file were unharmed and have been taken to Biloela Discount Chemist, and will be available to collect there.
"We would like to say a big thank you to Brad from security and our local emergency services for their quick actions to help save our shop.
"Thanks also in advance to our loyal customers for your patience. We will update you all when we have information about when we can get up and running again."
Queensland Police have confirmed that the fire was caused by an electrical fault and it was not suspicious, The Courier Mail reported.
