ARSONISTS set fire to a motorbike in Latchford in the early hours.

Firefighters were called to Kingsway South shortly after 3.30am today, Saturday.

One fire engine was called to the scene after a motorcycle was set alight near to the Co-op store – with the blaze believed to have been started deliberately.

A Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service spokesman said: “It’s thought to have been a deliberate ignition, and the motorbike was completely gutted so it’s not clear who it might belong to.”

Anyone with information is urged to contact Cheshire Police on 101, quoting incident number IML397727, or to call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
