Happy Valley Scrub Fire
A large scrub fire in Wellington started and 70 residents had to evacuate from their homes.
A Fire fighter for Wellington Brett Locker said the fire covered a very big area and about 30 houses had to be evacuated as the fire threatened to spread. Three helicopters with monsoon buckets were used to fight the fire. Luckily for the fire fighters the wind changed direction and the fire blew away from Happy Valley. Nearly all of the 70 residents slept in the emergency evacuation centre. Mr Locker said the cause of the fire was under investigation. The fire was close to the valleys landfill and fire fighters think the blaze started at 2 am.
I feel angry at the person who started the blaze because they could have killed heaps of people.
