Police are investigating an arson attack on two cars parked in a drive at Bradford.

Firefighters from Fairweather Green were called to an address in The Boundary, off Allerton Road, at half past midnight yesterday, and found the Toyotas, a Yaris and Auris, ablaze.

Crews managed to save both vehicles but both were badly damaged by fire.

A fire service spokesman said both cars had been deliberately set on fire. The occupiers had been asleep but were woken by a loud bang and had tried unsuccessfully to put the flames out with buckets of water.

The fire did not spread to the house and nobody was hurt.
