A CAR which was on fire in Bromsgrove last night (Wednesday, February 1) had to be extinguished by the town’s fire crew.

A Hereford and Worcester Fire and Rescue Service team from Bromsgrove Fire Station were alerted to and attended the blaze in Rock Hill at 10.59pm.

The crew, which had to wear two breathing apparatus, discovered the engine compartment of the car well alight and used rapid deployment procedures to put out the flames.
