Investigations are ongoing into the cause of two large, suspicious Hastings fires in the past week.
There have been a spate of serious fires in Hawke's Bay recently, with the two worst resulting in the death of a young child, and another leaving a woman with life threatening injuries.
Police are investigating both fires, which occurred within days of each other, but have been staying mum about new details.
Yesterday a police spokeswoman said enquiries were ongoing for both investigations.
On Monday afternoon St Leonards was covered in smoke from a large fire which started at an unused commercial property on Heretaunga St West.
