NSW: Fire at Sydney shopping centre = 5

JOHN LEWIS .. who works in the Bi-Lo supermarket on the first floor .. says he was
working in the store's back room when he heard a large bang.

He says he presumed it was a power surge because it looked like the fire was where
the electricity room is.

Mr LEWIS says the lights kept coming on and off throughout the centre.

Other witnesses say many people in the shopping centre believed it was a drill when
the building's alarms sounded .. and didn't immediately evacuate the building.
