Five people have received treatment for minor injuries following a fire in the Auckland suburb of Onehunga this morning.
The fire, at a textile factory in Miami Parade, has led to a large scale evacuation of the area, reported Newstalk ZB.
Witness Sam de Court noticed the fire at around 11.10am.
"Basically it is a big orange shed and there is a load of silos [nearby] that look like they hold gas or something.''
Mr de Court said there were at least five fire appliances at the scene.
"It's pretty bloody gnarly.''
