A tree at a courtyard outside Margaret Drive Hawker Centre in Queenstown caught fire on Thursday (Oct 23) evening but did not result in any injuries.
The incident happened at about 6.50pm at Block 38A Margaret Drive.
Videos of the incident posted on social media show flames on a branch of the tree even though it appears to have been recently trimmed.
Flames were concentrated on just the branch and did not spread elsewhere.
