A school minibus is among a number of vehicles to have been torched overnight.

In what seems to be a random attack, about six vehicles were targeted in various locations across Kennington, in Ashford.

Goat Lees Primary School's minibus has been completely gutted and so too have three cars in Bockhanger Lane.

Cars have also gone up in flames in Nine Acres and one-mile away in Hurst Road, with another suffering smashed windows in Bockhanger Lane.

Residents reported hearing bangs during the night between 1.30am and 3.30am.

Fire crews arrived at the multiple locations but most of the cars targeted have been written off.

Police are investigating the suspicious fires and are appealing for information.

Inquiries are ongoing and officers would like to hear from anyone with information about how the blazes were caused.
