    Fire investigators are at the scene where a barn used as accommodation in Auckland, went up in flames overnight

    Fire investigators are at the scene where a barn used as accommodation in Auckland, went up in flames overnight


    The blaze broke out just after midnight on Burne Road, Waitoki, in the Rodney District.

    Fire and Emergency says people were inside the 15 by 15 metre building at the time, but got out safely.

    Shift manager Colin Underdown says it was well ablaze when firefighters arrived, so an extra tanker was requested.

    He says the fire's been extinguished and crews have left.
