FIRE crews from Okehampton, Hatherleigh and North Tawton attended a vehicle fire on the A30 East bound near Merrymeet, between Exeter and Okehampton just before 1pm on Sunday, July 12.
On arrival crews found a campervan well alight and used two sets of breathing apparatus, two hose reel jets and a ground monitor to put out the fire and prevent any further escalation.
The campervan was completely destroyed by the fire.
The cause was believed to be accidental.
The road was completely closed for some time causing long tailbacks during the remainder of the afternoon.
