EXCLUSIVE

Patients miraculously escaped unhurt after a mobility van burst into flames directly outside a busy Dartford doctor's surgery.

Firefighters were called to Horsman's Place Surgery just after 11am last Friday, October 29, where they fought the flames for 30 minutes while startled bystanders watched on.

Although nobody was injured, four of the six windows at the side of the Instone Road building were blown out by the inferno which left the Dial-A-Ride van virtually unrecognisable.

The surgery and surrounding area were sealed off for over an hour while firemen cleared the area.
