Police are investigating after a fire broke out in the basement of a central Auckland nightclub early on Sunday.
Emergency services were called to Karangahape Road around 1.40am after an automatic fire alarm was activated.
The road was blocked for around an hour while Fire and Emergency worked at the scene.
Crews from Auckland City, Grey Lynn, and Parnell responded to the 40m by 20m fire in a two-storey building.
The blaze was extinguished within 20 minutes, but a fire investigator remained at the site until 2.30am.
Ambulance staff assessed one person.
