A QUAINT market town today resembles a ‘war zone’ after a gang of arsonists torched 13 cars in a late night rampage. The thugs put Wimborne in Dorset under siege by going from street to…
The rampage ended with two cars being set ablaze on Merley Ways, Poole, at 2.26am.
"The fire engulfed the car very quickly and three fire appliances were at the scene to stop it spreading to the building."I'm told a man had been seen running away from a fire and someone said they saw a man jumping on the back of a motorbike. Darren Trickett, 60, whose Land Rover Discovery was destroyed on Grove Road: "I woke up when I heard a bang, I didn't know what was happening. I looked out the window and saw my car in flames. I was worried that the engine might explode.
"The night sky was just glowing orange all around. It's like a war zone out there today, there are so many burnt out cars." "I would like to reassure our local communities that officers are currently investigating all reported incidents and are making every effort to identify those responsible. People will see visible police activity as officers are making house-to-house and CCTV enquiries.
