A shed fire in Whanganui East early on Tuesday morning is being investigated as suspicious.

The fire happened in Te Mawae St around 2.45am.

A Fire and Emergency New Zealand (Fenz) spokesperson said two crews responded and had the fire fully extinguished after two and a half hours.

The fire had since been deemed suspicious and referred to the police who said inquiries were ongoing.

A specialist fire investigator also attended to determine the cause of the blaze.
