Emergency services rush to Cambuslang town centre after vehicle goes on fire

Emergency services rushed to Cambuslang this morning after a road markings vehicle went on fire.

The truck was parked near a bus stop and flames and smoke were visible from it.

It is understood there was added concern due to the maintenance vehicle carrying gas canisters.

One eye-witness told Lanarkshire Live: "There was a lot of activity. Two appliances were being used and they were pumping water from the mains so it must have been a bad one."
