A vehicle fire broke out on Saturday afternoon, engulfing at least one vehicle near Arabian Ranches 3 on the E611 in Dubai.
The incident, which occurred close to the Hamdan Sports Complex, caught the attention of onlookers as smoke billowed into the sky from around 1PM, according to local reports.
Emergency teams quickly arrived at the scene, and by 4PM, the fire had been extinguished, allowing the vehicle to be removed from the road and traffic to resume its normal flow.
Local residents took to social media platforms to warn others about the potential danger in the area. Some users claim that it was a CAFU vehicle that caught on fire.
Horrible fire on the 611 by Ranches 3 . I've seen a video posted on the Ranches group (screenshot from there). Looks absolutely horrendous. Rumours that it's a fuel truck..possibly a CAFU. Avoid the area. pic.twitter.com/Xhh0bnRORx

Anyone know what this smoke in Dubai is about? This pic was taken from the retail Outlet Mall so not sure where it is. Is there a fire? pic.twitter.com/k4TX86GhMN
