A Sydney influencer’s newly opened kebab truck has been damaged in a suspected arson attack.

Authorities suspect that a “flammable liquid” was utilized to ignite the Spanian’s Kebabs truck on Bell Street in Preston at approximately 4 o’clock this morning.

The fire was quickly put out and there were no injuries.

The kebab truck was opened to large crowds earlier this month as part of a venture by social media sensation Anthony Lees, known online as Spanian.

The reformed criminal, who has amassed more than a million fans online for his travel style vlogs and Into the Hood YouTube series, took to Instagram to address the fire.

”They burnt the front wall, right, but it’s not an issue, there’s another truck already on the way,” he said.

Spanian’s Kebabs have four franchise truck locations in NSW and Melbourne. (Instagram)

“The trucks are part of their community and those people from your community save up for these trucks, and they have to pay for it.”

The influencer said he expects the business to be back up and running tonight, with a new truck being driven from Sydney.

The damaged truck will be repaired.

Spanian’s Kebabs has three other trucks in NSW.
