| Flames from the blazing car spread soon spread to the fence |
THIS is seriously bad!
While the world continues to reel from the impact of coronavirus, there are still a few individuals in our community whose malice apparently knows no bounds.
In the early hours of Wednesday morning, some residents of Sherburn Street and Lindsey Road, both in Cleethorpes, woke to find their parked cars had been broken into or vandalised.
In the early hours of this morning, there was another incident on Sherburn Street - one that could have had fatal consequences.
A parked car, a VW Golf hatchback, was torched so severely that the flames spread to an adjacent fence.
Fortunately, a nearby householder was awoken and raised the alarm.
Humberside Fire and Rescue were quickly on the scene to extinguish the blaze before anyone was injured.
Today, Caroline Cheshire posted on Facebook:
"Just want to say a big thank you to the people near us who woke us up to say our car was on fire which had spread to our garden fence off Lindsey Road.
"You probably saved our home, if not our lives. We were asleep with no clue!
"Also, the fire brigade were here in 5 mins and did a fab job putting it out.
"They think it was arson, so if anyone saw anything please let me know."
