Police are investigating after a car was set on fire on a Dunfermline street.
A Nissan Qashqai was torched just yards from homes on Izatt Avenue at around 11.35pm on Tuesday.
Detectives are treating the fire as deliberate.
One resident told The Courier that officers had been carrying out door-to-door inquiries on Wednesday morning.
He said: “I didn’t see the fire but was told about it and it’s shocking to think that someone would deliberately do such a thing.”
