    Firefighters using breathing equipment extinguished a car fire in a Harrogate district pub car park this afternoon.

    On-call firefighters from Acomb were mobilised at 12.49pm this afternoon to the Alice Hawthorn Inn at Nun Monkton.

    North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service's incident log said a VW Golf was "well alight" on arrival. It added::

    "Crews extinguished the fire and dampened down surrounding area using one hose reel jet and one breathing apparatus.
    "Crews gave advice to the owner of the vehicle. The cause of the fire is believed to be due to an electrical fault."
