Two fires in Rosyth within hours of each other are being treated as suspicious.

Crews were called to an empty block of flats on the town’s Duffy Place at 5.30am on Tuesday.

They then put out a fire in a house on Queensferry Road at around 8am.

An investigation into both incidents has been launched, with police said to be keeping an open mind about any link.

It has not been confirmed how the second fire started.
