A car fire on Route 2A was captured by a resident who emailed the Lincoln Squirrel.

Drivers on Route 2A in the Minute Man National Historical Park were startled to see a car ablaze at about 7:30 this morning, but Lincoln firefighters extinguished the fire and no one was hurt.

According to Lt. Ben Juhola of the Lincoln Fire Department, the driver noticed a warning signal on his dashboard and pulled over into a driveway. He then noticed smoke coming from his car so he grabbed his belongings and jumped out of the car, “and the fire started to progress,” Juhola said.

The  fire took about 20 minutes to extinguish, said Juholas, adding that he did not have the name of the driver.
