FIRE crews were called to an accident in County Durham this morning after a car flipped onto its roof and caught fire.
Two crews from Peterlee and a special rescue unit from Bishop Auckland attended the scene of the crash on the Wingate to Station Town road.
"Two crews from Peterlee used two hose reels to extinguish the fire," said a spokesman for Durham and Darlington Fire and Rescue.
No one was inside the car at the time of the fire.
