A SNACK van suffered damage “running into thousands of pounds” after it was “deliberately” set on fire in Coatbridge.

Two people were seen fleeing the scene in the industrial estate on the town’s Brown Street when the vehicle was torched at around 11.30pm last Monday, March 1.

Detective Constable Scott McCracken, of Coatbridge CID, said: “From our enquiries, two people, only described at this time as wearing dark clothing, are seen at the van and it then catches fire.

“They run off from Brown Street onto Dundyvan Road.

“The van was extensively damaged, with the cost to replace running into thousands of pounds.

“If you have any information that will assist officers with their investigation, then please call Coatbridge CID via 101, quoting reference number 0080 of March 1.

“Details can also be passed anonymously to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.”
