A fire burnt out the inside of a car parked in Squabmoor Reservoir Car Park on Wednesday, April 29.

People who were running in Woodbury Common phoned the emergency services at around 7pm when they noticed the fire in the back of a Jeep Patriot.

The fire, which involved a small bag of clothing, was extinguishing by a fire crew from Exmouth.

Once the car’s owner returned to his vehicle the incident was left in his hands.
