Mid and West Wales Fire and Rescue Service said that between 07:56pm on Friday, 19/04/2019, and 06:33pm on Sunday, 21/04/2019, Mid and West Wales Fire and Rescue Service (MAWWFRS) attended to six incidents of grass fires at North Dock, Llanelli. The majority of which were deliberately lit grass fires.
Station Manager Steve Richards, Arson Reduction Manager for MAWWFRS said “We are working with the Police to catch those who are responsible for setting these deliberate grass fires and will support prosecutions.
If anybody has seen or have information about these fires at North Dock, Llanelli you can contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 – or via an online anonymous form at Crimestoppers-uk.org.
Deliberate grass fires endanger lives. They are dangerous, unpredictable and can quickly spread out of control. It will take the Fire and Rescue Service longer to respond to life risk emergencies such as house fires or road traffic collisions if they are already tied up tackling a deliberately set grass fire.”
