A MAN'S car was targeted two nights in a row.

A blue Citroen had its tyres slashed on Thursday and was set on fire last night.

The fire crew from Bolton Station responded just after midnight to put out the fire in Langford Gardens.

Crew manager Mark Hoare said: "It was well alight when we got there, all the engine compartment and passenger area was well alight."

It took the crew around 40 minutes to put the fire out and make the area safe.
