Suspicious House Fires
3 November 2016
The rear of the New Lynn house was destroyed
A firefighter goes through decontamination processes at New Lynn
This morning's house fire in New Lynn was the second within 24 hours suspected of being connected with drugs. Today's call escalated to a third alarm when the house and its extensions at the rear exploded and caught fire. Firefighters were decontaminated on site - much the same as at last night's call in Milford where firefighters and a dog went through cleansing showers. At both calls members closed surrounding roads, provided scene protection and refreshments. At the same time as last night's Milford blaze our members were at three other fires... at a restaurant in New Lynn, a vehicle fire in Otahuhu and a house fire at Weymouth.
