A massive fire broke out in a four-wheel drive car in the Azbah area of Umm Al Quwain on Friday afternoon due to the hot weather.
Sources at the UAQ civil defence department told Khaleej Times that the car suddenly caught fire for no clear reason, but most likely due to the heat.
The central operations room of the UAQ Police, after being alerted of the blaze, dispatched the traffic police, ambulances, paramedics and rescue teams to the site in record time.
The civil defence firefighters managed to put out the fire, but unfortunately the car was completely gutted before they reached the site.
