Firefighters were called to a suspected arson incident in the early hours of this morning.

Crews from Carlisle East Station were mobilised just before 1pm to Meadow View, Harraby to a report of a vehicle fire.

A spokesman for the station said: "Crews discovered that a scooter was well alight, and they extinguished the fire using two water knapsacks.

"This was another arson incident, and could have delayed our crew from a life risk incident."
