A CAR fire in Warragul earlier this month has prompted the Warragul Fire Brigade to remind residents fires can start easily and unexpectedly.

“A Holden Statesman caught fire while the owner was taking it for a drive, after having work done on the car,” brigade captain Paul Tandberg said in a media release.

A spokesperson for the brigade later told the Warragul & Baw Baw Citizen the incident “is a good reminder that fires can occur when you least expect them.”
