Police Seek Man With Mullet After Lake Macquarie Bushfires

BY IAN CROUCH

Lake Macquarie police want to speak to a middle aged man who they believe can assist with their inquiries over three deliberately lit fires last week.

Around 4.40pm on Thursday a fire broke out in the Glenrock State Conservation Area near Burwood Road at Kahibah.

While crews were battling the flames, two other fires ignited beside the Fernleigh Track.

A man was seen standing next to the track watching the firefighting effort.

He's described as being in his 40's of Caucasian appearance, 170 centimetres tall with a solid build and scruffy dark brown hair in a mullet style cut.
