DETECTIVES are appealing for information following arson attacks on empty properties in Fairhurst Street and Milton Street, Leigh.
Both properties were empty and furniture that was being stored at the rear of the properties had been set light.
A white man in his late teens was seen running from the back of the address on Fairhurst Street and was then seen about 10 minutes later with another teenage man and a girl.
A joint investigation has now been launched with the fire service and enquiries are continuing.
Anyone with information about the attacks at about 3pm on Monday should call Leigh CID on 0161 856 7252 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
