Details of this latest incident were shared with our local police team and people associated with Thringstone Primary. A car was set on fire in the woodland in the early hours of 20 April and exploded because of the petrol in it. Police are aware as the fire service had to come out to put this out, as it was torched underneath some yew trees which were also damaged. Someone pulled up one of the concrete bollards from the Dalkeith Walk car park and left it on the grass.
