Firefighters have spent much of the night at the scene of a large scrub fire in Hawke's Bay.
Crews were called to the blaze on Korokipo Rd, in Fernhill, about 10.45pm and put up to six properties at risk.
Firefighters managed to extinguish the blaze without any injuries reported or
damage to any of the houses nearby.
Fire and Emergency NZ personnel remain at the scene to monitor for any flare-ups, however, and it is understood they will be there for much of today.
