Car bursts into flames on A40 near Carmarthen

A car burst into flames on a busy dual carriageway.

Part of the A40 in Carmarthenshire was closed as emergency services worked at the scene on Sunday morning.

It happened on the westbound carriageway near the Pontlesneven roundabout at the Johnstown slip road.

Traffic monitors showed heavy traffic while fire crews worked to put out the flames.
