A 30-year-old man has been arrested and charged in connection with a series of fire raising incidents in the Silverknowes area of the city during the early hours of Wednesday, 27 January.
Officers appealed for help following fires on four vehicles on Silverknowes Eastway, Silverknowes Avenue and Cramond Road South as well as within a property of Main Street, Davidson’s Mains and a post box on Silverknowes Road.
Police say that nobody was injured in any of the incidents, but each of the fires was being treated as deliberate.
The man is expected to appear at Edinburgh Sheriff Court later today.
John graduated from Telford College in 2010 with an HNC in Practical Journalism and since then he worked for the North Edinburgh News, The Southern Reporter, the Irish News Review and The Edinburgh Reporter. In addition he has been published in the Edinburgh Evening News and the Hibernian FC Programme.
