A vehicle has caught on fire in Moray while it was still being driven.

Fire units received the call at 12.09pm today that a motorist required help in Fochabers. The team dispatched one apparatus to the scene.

Using breathing apparatus and a stream jet, the unit successfully quelled the flames.

The vehicle caught on fire as it was in use by a sole driver. It is currently unclear what started the blaze.

There are no injuries reported.
