A bottle was hurled at firefighters as they attended a couch fire in Dunedin's student quarter yesterday morning.
Fire and Emergency New Zealand was called to Castle St about 3.30am, where they found a couch on fire. As they extinguished it, a bottle was thrown at them.
Fenz assistant area manager Craig Geddes said firefighters should not be subjected to such behaviour, which was rare these days.
Police said a 19-year-old man was spoken to about the incident.

"Police said a 19-year-old man was spoken to about the incident." - with respect, a correction: that would be a 19 year old boy.
It sounds like he has some growing up to do before he deserves to be called a man.
