The fire service is treating a house fire in the Dunedin suburb of Concord last night as suspicious. Investigators will try to determine the cause of the blaze after crews were called to a Mulford St address shortly before 8pm. Fire service shift manager Andrew Norris said when they got to the house no one was inside, but occupants had been inside earlier. The fire was thought to be suspicious, but the cause was yet to be determined.
