Witness appeal after arson attack at football club

Police are looking for four boys who were seen running away from a suspected arson attack at a football club.

Thousands of pounds worth of kit and equipment belonging to Swindon Supermarine Youth FC was destroyed in a fire at Webbswood Stadium on 28 August at around 14:30 BST.

Wiltshire Police say the blaze is believed to have been started deliberately between two metal containers.

They have described the boys as being in their early or mid-teens, seen running away from the site towards the woods in the direction of Sevenhampton.

They are thought to be of a slim build and were wearing grey tracksuit bottoms and navy blue or black hoodies.

Police enquiries are ongoing and anyone with information is urged to come forward.

It comes as a fundraiser to replace the kit, which includes summer tournament apparatus, has reached over £1,800.

The Club's Chairman said he was "fuming" about the attack, after the hard work of volunteers to build the club up.
