A person has suffered burns after a bin fire this evening in Grey Lynn.
Neighbours reported hearing a "massive boom" about 8.10pm coming from near the Samoan church on Crummer Rd.
A resident said he heard the apparent explosion from his house and people appeared to be spilling out from the church.
A Fire and Emergency spokeswoman confirmed fire personnel were responding to a bin fire and one person had suffered burns.
She had no information about how seriously the person was injured or how the fire had started.
