Fire teams have rushed to an apartment building in central Wellington overnight to put out a fire.
Fire crews said a small fire started in one of the apartments in the complex on Dixon St.
A witness reported seeing black smoke rising from the top of the building just before 1am.
“Fire crews are at the scene, including people wearing white hazmat suits,” the witness said at the time.
“The road was cordoned off to cars but pedestrians were allowed through.”
