    Barbecue sets caravan awning on fire

    Family hurt, but fire quickly out


    Two adults and two children have been hurt after the awning of a caravan in Starcross was set on fire by a disposable barbecue.

    The blaze in Cofton Lane was out before a fire crew from Dawlish arrived.

    Paramedics were called to treat the people for the effects of breathing in smoke.

    Twenty per cent of the awning was damaged and the caravan was affected too.
