St Helens Road Arson Attack?

Postby Richard » Thu Mar 21, 2019 10:36 am

I heard extremely loud and disturbing male voices screaming/shouting early this morning along St Helens Road, lower end and across into the Park at around 3 am today.
I didn't bother greatly as it has happened before but this time it sounded excessively noisy, I was half-asleep anyway but perhaps I should have called the Police.
At around 4 am a close neighbour had his large wooden front garden 'bunker' burned badly by what looks like some sort of arson attack, possibly related (or not) to the disturbance in the vicinity at around the same time.
If it were the people making the disturbance who also carried out the 'attack' on my neighbour's property shortly afterwards then it sounds particularly brazen and bold and why would people be rampaging around and setting fire to property?
All a bit alarming and deliberate random or targeted attack is the next concern.

Two Police cars are still parked up along the road...

Was there not an arson attack several years ago in St Helens Road where some children were killed and nobody has ever been convicted?

I think that was Stonefield Road?

I have not heard anything about this whatsoever but it sounds dreadful.
Is there any information anywhere that mentions this incident?
