Emergency services were called to a bathroom fire at the University of Otago in Dunedin. A Fire and Emergency New Zealand (Fenz) spokeswoman said an alarm activation called crews to an area of the University about 8.05pm. The cause was a small fire in a bathroom, which was "easily extinguished", she said. Crews from Willowbank, St Kilda and Dunedin City attended the incident, which was a standard response for the University. A fire investigator was trying to determine the source, she said.
