SADSBURYVILLE, Pa. — Firefighters in Pennsylvania caught up with a runaway car on fire Tuesday after it rolled down a hill while engulfed in flames.

Sadsburyville Fire Company No. 1 said in a Facebook post that the flaming car rolled about 200 feet just as first responders were arriving.

Video filmed by a bystander shows the burning car sitting near an intersection for about a minute before it begins to roll toward the bystander. The car hits a curb and swerves before coming to a rest on the other side of the street. Firefighters arrive seconds later and extinguish the flames within minutes.
