Emergency services are appealing for information after a suspected arson attack on a van in Cornwall.

A fire crew from St Austell was sent to the blaze at 02:52 BST after multiple reports of a van on fire near a building on Trevarthian Road.

After the fire was put out, Cornwall Council's highways team cleared up the spilled fuel and broken glass which posed a hazard to pedestrians, Cornwall Fire and Rescue Service said.

It added that anyone with information about the blaze should share it with Devon and Cornwall Police.
