Fire and Rescue NSW (FRNSW) extinguished a car fire at Blackwall on the NSW Central Coast earlier this morning.

A crew from Umina responded to the incident on Blackwall Road near the local boat ramp around 5.15 am.

Upon arrival, firefighters found a grey sedan completely alight and worked quickly to extinguish the blaze.

There were no reported injuries.

Superintendent Adam Dewberry from Fire and Rescue NSW (FRNSW) said this is a timely reminder that calling Triple Zero (000) for a fire emergency can be the difference between life and death, or a building or other property being saved or destroyed.

The Triple Zero (000) service is the quickest way to get the right resources from emergency services to help you. It should be used to contact Police, Fire or Ambulance services in life-threatening or time-critical situations.
