Local residents looked on as fire crews tackled the flames as the vehicle was wrecked by fire outside a house in Smillie Road, Rossington.

The blaze, which broke out at around 9.30pm on Monday, was eventually extinguished by South Yorkshire Fire and Rescue crews about half an hour after the fire began.
