Fire crews raced to a road sweeper lorry engulfed in flames on a roadside in south Oxfordshire.
Crews from Thame and Aylesbury Fire Stations attended the fire in Thame earlier today (November 28).
Dramatic footage from Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service shows the truck ablaze with thick, black smoke billowing from it prior to crews arriving on scene.
The fire service said crews wearing breathing apparatus extinguished the fire.
They used two hose reels from Thame’s fire engine.
The Thame crew remained on scene for some time to monitor the situation before declaring the incident closed.
It is unknown how the fire started at this stage.
