Video footage from the scene showed the vehicle engulfed in a fireball directly outside the shops.

It is the third major fire in Doncaster in the space of three days.

On Saturday morning, emergency services were called to the Morrisons petrol station on York Road after a van was totally destroyed by fire on the forecourt.

And yesterday afternoon, crews were called to Doncaster Rovers’ training ground in Cantley Park following a large fire.
