A dual carriageway in Norfolk was partially closed by an ambulance crew following a car fire.
A Mini Cooper was ablaze at the roadside of the A47 eastbound near the Longwater retail park, west of Norwich.

Police said the Mini did not have anyone inside it. The carriageway was fully reopened by 09:00.
The force said both carriageways were closed for a short time and diversions were put in place as fire crews extinguished the blaze.
Police remained at the scene and the Mini was recovered by 09:57.
