A CAR was deliberately set on fire at an incident on Bridgwater Road in Taunton last night, (April 26) say Devon and Somerset Fire and Rescue.

A fire engine from Taunton was sent to reports of a fire on some ground at 10.43pm.

On arrival crews found one car well alight against a hedge which had become involved in the fire.

Two breathing apparatus and two hose reel jets were used to put out the fire.
