A Wellington firetruck has been taken off the road, after its engine caught fire, prompting a response from a fellow crew.
The New Zealand Professional Firefighters Union said the truck was only one of two high-reach heavy aerial-ladder trucks in the capital.
No-one was hurt in the blaze and the fire was extinguished.


Well, there are a lot of these emergency vehicles going around the world all the time, and very seldom does anything like this happen. I just don’t want people thinking that firetrucks aren’t safe.
Was this firetruck safe?
Yes.
