A man accused of twice setting fire to a gym at Wickham earlier this year has been arrested.
It's alleged the 42-year-old started a fire at the Air Locker Gym in Albert Street on January 20 before returning three days later and starting another fire on the ground floor which caused extensive damage.
A vehicle allegedly involved in the incidents was found burnt out at Salamander Bay on February 4.
Early yesterday (Thursday 5 March, 2026), police went to a home on Keel Street at Salamander Bay and arrested the accused.
He's been charged with three counts of damaging property by fire or explosion and refused bail.
