MANCHESTER − An Amazon van making the rounds Tuesday burst into flames, engulfing and destroying the vehicle, police said.

There were no reports of injuries, and based on an initial investigation, it was not believed to be suspicious.

Police went to Manchester Boulevard and Central Avenue in the Whiting section of the township about 1:30 p.m. on the report of a vehicle fire. When they arrived, flames engulfed the unoccupied van. The fire did not threaten nearby homes or vehicles, police said.
