Police officers have launched an arson investigation following a ‘deliberate’ fire at a bungalow in Mapperley Park.
Emergency services were called to Redcliffe Road shortly after 8.20pm on Saturday night (11) after reports of smoke coming from a property.
The blaze caused significant damage but thankfully no-one was inside the property.
Officers believe the fire was started deliberately and are appealing for information which could help them in their investigation.
Detective Sergeant Scott Walker, of Nottinghamshire Police, said: “We have launched an arson investigation following this incident and would now appeal to the public for information.
“Thankfully no individuals were present in the property at the time of the fire and no injuries were sustained.
“Deliberately starting a fire is absolutely unacceptable. The consequences can be devastating and we will work with our colleagues at the fire service to fully investigate reports of arson and bring offenders to justice.
“We would urge anyone with information to get in touch with Nottinghamshire Police on 101, quoting incident 688 of 11 February 2023.”
2020? How long is the backlog in our courts? Disgusting!!
