One person suffered possible smoke inhalation after a blaze at a Chinese restaurant in Oamaru last night.
Fire and Emergency New Zealand said it was called at 7.57pm to the Thames St restaurant, next to the Oamaru Cinema.
Four fire engines were sent and police cordoned off the building as black smoke covered the main street of Oamaru. An ambulance arrived to deal with one patient.
Fenz said the one-storey building was well alight.
