Three helicopters are currently battling a fire in Arrowtown that started when a burn-off spread to a neighboring property earlier today.

According to a spokesperson from Fire and Emergency New Zealand, the Arrowtown crew was alerted to the blaze around 3:45 pm.

As of now, the fire is not considered to be out of control, but firefighting crews are working alongside the landowner to contain it.

By 6 pm, three helicopters were actively involved in fighting the fire, which spans approximately 350m by 400m, the spokesperson confirmed.

The fire is located near Coronet Forest.

A reporter from the Otago Daily Times who was present at the scene observed five distinct columns of smoke, indicating that the fire was spreading uphill.
