Save Firemen were kept busy battling two blazes in Auckland's eastern suburbs last night (Thursday), including a suspicious fire at Howick College.
Fire services were called to the college at 10pm after being phoned by a concerned resident.
Spokesman Jaron Philips said the foyer area of one building was alight when
four appliances arrived.
"It is being treated as a suspicious fire, and the fire involved a foyer of a building, a verandah and some furniture.
He said the fire was brought under control in 10 to 15 minutes.
