POLICE are appealing for information to try and track down the three teenage arsonists who for no apparent reason went into a clothes store and began setting fire to clothing.

The incident happened on Friday last week when the trio, who are all white, aged 16, with shoulder-length brown hair, entered The In Shop in High Road, Wealdstone at 2.10pm.

As they browsed around the owner suddenly noticed that one of the blouses on display was on fire and he raced over and put it out. At this point, the trio fled the store, at which point the owner realised they had destroyed four other blouses in this way.

Anyone with information is asked to call DS Ted Cornwell on 020 8733 3481.
