Police are appealing for information after an empty school building in Invergordon, was set on fire around 6.10 pm yesterday evening, Wednesday March 17.
The fire took place in Park Primary School, Albany Road – the second fire in a matter of weeks.

“We believe this fire was started deliberately and I would urge anyone who saw anything suspicious, particularly people within the school grounds to get in touch.

“If you can help with our investigation please call 101, quoting incident 2709 of Wednesday, 17 March, or make a call anonymously to the charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.”
