Littlehampton arson attacks

A fire crew from Littlehampton was called to Greenfields, Wick, at 12.40am after reports a car was on fire.

When the crew arrived there was no sign of any fire but a group of boys were seen fleeing the scene.

Police are now investigating the incident and forensics are testing the car thought to be the proposed target.

Two fire crews were then called to a fire at a shed in Willow Brook, Wick, just after 5am.

Firefighters were at the scene for an hour and a half and had to use breathing apparatus while they got the fire under control.

Police crime scene experts are now working with West Sussex Fire and Rescue to work out how the fire was started.
