iStockA man has been charged after four cars were set on fire in separate incidents in Fife.
Officers received reports of cars on fire on Fernie Court on June 29, Melville Close on July 13 and July 19, and Strathallan Close on July 28.
Police Scotland said the fires are being treated as deliberate.
The force confirmed no one was injured as a result of the “reckless” acts but said the incidents had a “significant” impact on the victims.
A 31-year-old man has been arrested and charged in connection with the fires and is set to appear in court at a later date.
Sergeant Nicola Crookston said: “Thankfully nobody has been injured as a result of these reckless acts.
“We understand the significant impact these incidents have had on the victims, and appreciate the assistance provided by the local community during our investigations.
“Such behaviour is unacceptable, and we are committed to thoroughly investigating all reports of wilful fire-raising.
“If you have any concerns or information about these types of incidents, please contact police on 101. Alternatively, if you wish to remain anonymous, you can call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.“
