POLICE have thanked the media and the public after coverage of an appeal to trace an older woman and a teenage boy following a fire at St Andrew’s church at Westhall on Tuesday afternoon led to them coming forward.
Officers have been given an explanation as to how the fire started and police are not looking for anyone else in connection with the incident. The matter will be dealt with in due course.
A police spokesperson said: “We would like to thank you for your assistance as this directly led to several calls to police.”
