An inferno at an auto and tyre shop destroyed multiple cars and left one person seriously injured on Tuesday.

The fire began before 1pm at the Caboolture Tyres & More business on Peter Rash Court.

“When crews first arrived, we were met with pretty severe fire conditions,” a Queensland Fire Department spokesperson said.

“There’s a lot of flammable liquids – gasses, you know, chemicals.”

A man believed to be the manager of the business suffered severe burns and was taken to the Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital.

He was initially reported to be in a life-threatening condition, but had improved by Tuesday night.
