Firebugs were active in York last night (Friday).
Fire crews were called to three separate incidents of arson in the city.
At 8.59pm they went to Acomb Wood where a tree was on fire. An Acomb fire crew used a knapsack sprayer, beaters and a spade to put it out.
It is the third deliberate fire in the wood in the last few weeks, with incidents on 13 March and 3 April.
A 9.42pm, the Acomb crew were called out again, this time to Acomb Green, where a bench was on fire. This was extinguished with a bucket of water.
Then at 3.30am firefighters put out a wheelie bin which had been set on fire on Foxwood Lane.
