Police are appealing for information following a fire at a derelict building in Alexandria
Around 8pm last night, two members of the public reported smoke coming from a derelict church building, formerly Kidzworld, on Main St, Alexandria.
Emergency services attended and a small fire within was extinguished by the fire service.
Insp Allan Orr, Dumbarton Police Office, said: “Thankfully there was no one in the building and no one injured as a result of the fire or the smoke, however, had the two members of the public not noticed the smoke, the fire could have spread and the consequences much worse.
“I would appeal to members of the public to contact police if they saw someone acting suspiciously at the building last night, or if they have any information that will assist our enquiries.”
Please contact Dumbarton Police Station via 101 quoting reference number 3840/24/06. Alternatively, Crimestoppers can be contacted anonymously on 0800 555 111.
