Four people have been rescued from the roof of a burning building in south Auckland.

The blaze broke out in a two storey shopping and apartment building on Bairds Rd in Otara, around 8.30am.

Fire officer Jaron Phillips says the fire was quickly located on the second floor - and officers then received reports of four people on the roof.

Fire fighters used aerial ladders to bring them safely down.
