Family forced to flee home after arson attack

Family forced to flee home after arson attackNieuw2 min

A family in Cobden, including a father and two children, were forced to flee their home after an arsonist set it alight in an act of retribution for assisting police with another investigation. The firebombing occurred eight months ago, with the family reportedly providing information about a shooting of a woman on their street that led to a 26-year-old man's arrest. Police have released CCTV footage of a Mazda 3 travelling at speed towards Camperdown minutes after the fire and believe multiple people in the Cobden, Camperdown and Toorang area conspired to carry out the attack.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
