Temuka’s Night ‘n Day store has been closed following a “significant fire” inside the store on Friday evening.

Fire and Emergency New Zealand spokesperson Ian Littlejohn said they received a call at 8.55pm about a power board that was smoking inside the store on King St.

“Timaru and Temuka [fire crews] responded, and we also called the power company to isolate the power,” Littlejohn said.

“On arrival, crews found a significant fire and requested further assistance from Temuka and Washdyke.”

He said the fire had started in a wall and the fire crews had no problem extinguishing it and stood down a water tanker from Timaru.

The fire was not considered suspicious, and a fire investigator did not attend the site. There were no reports of injuries.
