NSW police appeal for information after bushfire

Police from Sutherland Police Area Command are appealing for witnesses following a bushfire in the Royal National Park earlier this month.

About 11am on Saturday 17 August 2019, emergency services responded to a fire near the shores of South West Arm in the Royal National Park.

The fire was extinguished by NSW Rural Fire Service on Tuesday 20 August 2019, and a crime scene was established.

Following inquiries, police believe there may be witnesses, possibly in boats, that were in the area when the fire started, who are yet to speak with police.

Police are urging anyone with information about these fires to call Sutherland Shire detectives on (02) 9542
