Holt fires prompt call for witnesses

POLICE are seeking witnesses to two fires, believed to have been deliberately lit, in Holt on Sunday. 

Around 2.15am, police were called to the Kippax Fair Shopping Centre where firefighters had extinguished a small blaze outside the Kippax Health Centre.

The fire caused minor damage to a door at the Health Centre, and appears to have been deliberately lit.

Around 3.15am, police attended a second fire at the Kippax Fair Shopping Centre, where a silver Hyundai Excel was alight in the front car park.

The fire was extinguished and the cause is being investigated.

Anyone who witnessed either of the two fires or any suspicious activity at Kippax Fair Shopping Centre early Sunday morning is asked to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000, or via the website www.act.crimestoppers.com.au. Information can be provided anonymously.
