A fire investigation is being carried out today after emergency services responded to a car fire in Invercargill.
A Fire and Emergency New Zealand spokesman said one appliance and crew extinguished a small spot fire in Rodney St, Georgetown.
He said they liaised with police and a fire investigator was headed to the scene shortly before noon.
Fire crews had also been called out earlier in the morning to reports of a tyre fire.
Upon arrival they found one tyre on fire on Stead St which they extinguished.
