A MOTORIST used an extinguisher to put out a fire in an abandoned stolen car.
He saw smoke coming from the grey Renault 19 in an alley behind Peabody Street, Great Lever, and used the extinguisher from his own car to put out the flames.
Firefighters from Bolton Central arrived to check the stolen vehicle, which was found just after 8pm last night.
