Police are treating a fire in a Kinglassie car park as deliberate.

Video from the scene on Lochty Avenue in the Fife village showed a car and van engulfed in flames on Wednesday evening.

A local resident told The Courier they heard a loud bang before looking outside and seeing the fire which had taken hold.

A second man who lives in Kinglassie said they were concerned the flames were going to spread to other cars parked nearby.

“I thought the other cars were going to go [on fire] but thankfully not,” he said.
