A fire engine from Crewkerne was mobilised following a call reporting a vehicle on fire. Upon arrival the Incident Commander confirmed the vehicle was well alight. A message was received requesting a further fire engine be mobilised for water, as the fire had spread to nearby hedgerow.

Throughout the incident crews used:

• One breathing apparatus.
• One hose reel jet.
• One compressed air foam jet.
• A thermal image camera.

The vehicle was 100% damaged by fire. The cause is believed to be deliberate.
