Police Appeal For Information Over Suspicious Barber Shop Fire At East Maitland

 BY IAN CROUCH

Raptor Squad Police have released CCTV images they believe could assist with their inquiries after a barber shop at East Maitland was torched in an arson attack earlier this year.

Around 1am on Saturday September 14, police and fire crews were called to the shopping precinct on Garnett Road to reports of a fire.

Detectives believe two men were seen walking from Alfred Close into the shopping precinct around 10.20pm on Friday September 14 - one of them, a hooded man wearing grey tracksuit pants, dark jumper and a moon boot returned to the barber shop with another man before they left in a silver Commodore and white van.

Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers.
