A caravan has been destroyed in an arson attack in Wisbech.
The incident happened just after 6am yesterday (January 15) in Money Bank.
Pictures posted on social media show the inside of the caravan left with burnt cupboard doors and charred remains of furniture.
Emma Cave Gavin Chilton, who wrote in the post that the caravan belonged to her grandmother, asked for anyone with CCTV in Money Bank, Bush Lane or Boyce’s Road to help find out who did it.
She added: “I was also told by a neighbour that two females and a male were seen hovering around the caravan as the neighbour’s dog was barking.”
The post has been shared more than 80 times.
Firefighters used a hose reel to extinguish the fire, before returning to their station by 8.10am.
