Hundreds of thoughtless drivers have frustrated attempts to tackle a massive wildfire in Dorset after they ignored signs not to park in the area and moved a fire brigade's hose so they could park their cars.

A huge fire ripped through a nature reserve near a nudist beach in Dorset - 'likely' sparked by a disposable barbecue.

Around 90 firefighters were scrambled to get the blaze under control, and dozens were evacuated from the area.

While the devastating fire was raging near Bournemouth, firefighters discovered an unexploded Second World War bomb, making the situation even more dangerous. 

Firefighters tackled the flames throughout the night and were still dampening down the fire today. 

However, this didn't stop around 300 drivers from travelling near to the danger zone and parking their cars on a hose being used to tackle the fire.

Dorset Police sent out a warning on Twitter, demanding the drivers return to their cars and move so the fire brigade could get the fire under control.
