A resident escaped from a burning house after a suspected arson attack in the early hours of Easter Monday. Fire chiefs say the blaze was 'deliberately lit' in an out building in the back garden in Bolton before spreading to the end terrace property.
The resident escaped the building after smoke alarms went off. Pictures from the scene show widespread damage to the ground and first floor windows and the roof of the home on Pentland Terrace.
Around 15 firefighters were called to the scene at about 3.30am on Monday. They spent about three hours at the scene. It's understood police also attended the incident.
