A man has been arrested following a suspicious house fire in Levin.
The Cambridge Street blaze was reported just after 4am on Saturday. The occupants escaped without injury.
Police later said a 40-year-old man had been taken into custody, and will appear in Palmerston North District Court on Monday charged with arson.
They wanted to hear from anyone who might have more information or CCTV footage.
"Part of our enquiries also include the movements of a red Suzuki Swift in the area at the time," Detective Sergeant Shelley Ross said.
Police said to call 105 or go online and quote file number 250621/8961.
The fire was one of several across the country overnight, including one fatal in Marton.
