Parents and staff members of a local primary school jumped in to help extinguish a fire after a doggy parlour van caught fire this morning.
The driver of the van was dropping off children at Laerskool Krugersdorp-Noord when it caught fire at around 7.10am.
Members of the Sector 3 CPF were deployed to the scene after the incident was reported on the two-radio system.
On arrival the passengers of the vehicle were already freed and staff members from the school along with parents jumped in to extinguish the fire.
It is believed the petrol in the engine somehow caught alight.
Minutes later Mogale City’s Emergency Management Services fire truck arrived.
Fortunately no animals or passengers were harmed during the incident.
