A witness at the scene said at least three fire trucks were at the Escea factory where smoke could be seen escaping from an open door in the inwards goods part of the factory. A Fire and Emergency New Zealand spokesman said crews from Roslyn, Lookout Point and Dunedin were called to the factory at about 1.24pm after a fire alarm went off in the premises. A second alarm was transmitted and further crews and resources were called to the scene. Crews are still on the scene working to fully extinguish the fire and to ventilate the smoke-logged factory.
