A plea for help identifying suspected arsonists in Oswestry has been made by the victims of the alleged attack this week.

Firefighters from the town were sent to Wats Drive shortly after midnight on Tuesday, October 29 after reports of a car fire.

Shropshire Fire and Rescue Service (SFRS) believe it was deliberately caused.

Now Andrew Jones, whose partner Nicole owned the vehicle, has launched an appeal for information and any potential CCTV footage to help bring those responsible to justice.

And he thanked those who alerted him and his family so they could stop it spreading.

“In the early hours of Tuesday morning, my partner’s car was set on fire outside our house," Andrew said.

“We are looking for anyone in Wats Drive, Coppice Drive and also Jasmine Gardens to look through their cameras from 11.55pm to 12.08am.

“We are very lucky and thankful of our neighbours heard the fire before it spread to the house and got out in time because me, my girlfriend and little boy were asleep at the time.

“But all of our boy’s stuff that was in the car is gone. Car seats, pushchair, baby carrier, clothes, shoes, DVD player and tablet – all destroyed.

“I urge people to please look thoroughly through their CCTV from around that time.
