Fire and Emergency crews were called to the scene of a small fire at a scrap metal yard in Woolston tonight.

It’s the same premises of a large blaze that broke out at National Steel on the evening of 17 August.

Two appliances were called just after 7PM Saturday, following a report of smoke coming from a building.

A low-pressure hose was used to extinguish the small fire.

It’s not thought to be suspicious at this stage.

Police released CCTV footage of four suspects believed to be linked to the August 17th fire at National Steel, but no arrests have been made.
