A central Auckland apartment building that also contains a childcare centre has been evacuated after a fire.
Several fire trucks and a fire investigator attended the scene on Hobson St after a fire broke out in an air conditioning unit on the sixth floor.
Fire and Emergency says it was called to the building about 11:30am on Monday morning.
Crews cleared the building of excess smoke.
The building hosts Auckland's Best Childcare Centre.
