Three vehicles may have been set on fire deliberately in Dundee during the early hours of Friday morning.
Fire crews were called to Trades Lane around 4.30am after a Nissan Micra was set on fire.
The blaze, which is being treated as suspicious, then spread to a Subaru parked next to it.
Both cars were destroyed.
At the same time, an orange KTM motorcycle was on fire in neighbouring Allan Lane.
Both incidents have been confirmed as deliberate by Scottish Fire And Rescue Service, and Police Scotland said they “strongly believe” the incidents are linked.
Then around 5:30am a black Mazda car was on fire in Bellfield Street.
A Police Scotland spokesman said this may be linked to the earlier fires.
He said: “As this was some time later and some distance away we are not certain if it is linked to the earlier incident.
“It has not been confirmed that this fire was deliberate, but given the earlier incident in the city centre, it is being considered as a possibility.”
A Dundee FC spokesman confirmed the Subaru belonged to the Dens Park side but declined to comment further.
The car has been loaned to the club by Autosales Garage in Kirriemuir.
