Two injured in Otahuhu house fire

The owners of a house damaged in an explosion earlier today are thankful they weren't at home with their baby at the time. Emergency services were called to the scene of the fire this morning after they were called about the fire by commuters who saw the blaze from the motorway. A fire service spokesman said two people were found inside the home by staff. They were removed and given first aid, before St John arrived.
