Firefighters remain at the scene of 30 hour scrap yard fire

Firefighters remain at the scene of a fire at a South Auckland scrap metal yard, which has been burning for more than 30 hours.
The fire at the Sims Metal scrap yard in Favona shut down schools, stopped train services and sent toxic smoke billowing across the suburb, forcing people indoors.
It is the ninth fire at the site and the fifth described as serious by Fire and Emergency (FENZ).
