Van filled with fireworks catches fire

Must read

A van loaded with fireworks caught fire and burned itself out overnight.

Firefighters were called to Wimborne Road in Tarrant Keyneston at about 21:50 GMT on Friday.

Dorset & Wiltshire Fire and Rescue Service said because of the risk posed by the fireworks, a cordon was put in place but removed once the fire had burned out.

Crews left at about 07:50 on Saturday but the road will remain closed so the van can be recovered and road repairs carried out. No-one was injured.
