‘I’m scared about them coming back’ Kirkcaldy driving instructor’s fears after car is torched outside her home

A Kirkcaldy driving instructor has had her car petrol bombed.

Linda Gavin, who runs Linda’s Learners, plans to be out on the road again today despite thugs destroying her vehicle on Wednesday night.

After the blaze was put out, she found an Irn-Bru bottle with a rag stuffed in it inside the wreckage.

The car was torched just yards from Mrs Gavin’s home while she slept.

A neighbour raised the alarm.

She told The Courier her neighbour’s vigilance prevented the fire from reaching the house.

“I feel totally threatened and never slept a wink after it,” she said.

“I’m scared about them coming back.”
