    A Palmerston North house has led to the arrest of a 26-year-old man found at the scene


    He is due in Palmerston North District Court tomorrow on two charges of wilfully setting fire to a property and one of possessing an offensive weapon.

    Emergency services found the Main Street house fully ablaze when they arrived just before 4 this afternoon.

    A scene guard is expected to remain overnight.
