An acrid, pungent smell is reported to still be hanging over the suburb.Victoria Street has been closed to all traffic between Church and Hoddle streets and three tram routes suspended.Jolly said the frequency of such incidents was becoming impossible to ignore, noting Richmond alone had now been hit three times, with more than 100 similar firebombings recorded elsewhere across Melbourne Residents, he said, now wake each day to the prospect of another attack — something he called "the most important issue facing Melbourne at the moment".Monday's fire is the third to hit Richmond in recent months, and by far the most severe, according to Jolly, following a firebombing at a Bridge Road tobacconist on 1 July and an attack on an exclusive Swan Street car dealership in May.That earlier attack on Bridge Road saw trams suspended and a major inner-city road closed after emergency crews found the ground floor of a tobacco shop engulfed in flames about 3.30am
