One fire appliance from Dawlish attended a car on fire, which was well alight on arrival. Crews used two breathing apparatus and two hose reel jets to put the fire out. Crews also used a thermal imaging camera to check for hot spots. The cause of the fire was accidental.
They've removed the car but not swept up any of the glass or charcoaled remains, not sure whose responsibility it is. Be careful if you are driving up Elm Grove Road just before the Newlands turning.
