Police are investigating after a caravan was set alight outside its owner’s home in Huddersfield last weekend.
According to the Huddersfield Daily Examiner, the incident occurred on the evening of Saturday January 29th on Rufford Road in Golcar.
Arsonists are believed to have started the blaze, which left the touring caravan completely ruined.
A local photographer managed to take a picture of the burning caravan, which was parked on the owner’s drive at the time.
West Yorkshire Police are now gathering further evidence in an effort to track down those responsible.
“The fire service reported it to us because they suspected deliberate ignition,” a police spokeswoman said. “We’re following up enquiries at this stage.”
The blaze follows a similar incident in West Yorkshire in December, which saw arsonists torch a caravan and two family cars parked outside the owner’s home.
Jaimie and Debbie Dobson from Liversedge near Kirklees had been asleep in the house when the attack took place.
