WA bushfire threat lessened

Firefighters have brought a bushfire in Perth's northeastern suburbs under control, saving many houses.

After an emergency warning was issued for people in Ellenbrook, Bullsbrook and The Vines in the City of Swan on Monday, firefighters worked quickly to contain and eventually control the blaze.

An advice is now in place for the area.

The fire is burning in bushland near Pineroo Terrace, Feredy Loop and Maralla Road.

The cause of the fire is unknown but people are asked to report suspicious behaviour to police.
