Police appealing for information after three vehicles set ablaze in quick succession in South Lanarkshire.
news.stv.tvI don’t have live access to current feeds in this moment, but here’s what I can share based on recent publicly reported items about Uddingston and nearby Lanarkshire incidents.
- There have been previous reports of deliberate fire-raising incidents in Kirkmuirhill and Uddingston around December 2024, with police appealing for information and noting that several vehicles were targeted; no injuries were reported in those incidents.[2][4]
- Local coverage from STV and Police Scotland in late 2024 described investigations into those events and asked for public assistance, including CCTV or dash-cam footage.[4]
- Separate regional updates over the past year include related fire investigations and appeals in South Lanarkshire, which may reflect ongoing concern about arson-type fires in the area.[4]
