SEVERAL bins were set on fire almost at once in the same Huddersfield street.

Witnesses reported seeing someone walking along the back of Mitre Street, at Marsh, torching the wheeled bins at about 4am on Saturday.

The fire from one of the bins then spread to a shed.

All the contents of the stone building were reported to have been burned out.

Firefighters from Huddersfield were called to the scene and spent about an hour tackling the blaze. No-one was hurt in incident, but police need to hear from anyone who may have information about who was responsible.
