FIRE crews have been called out to the Kingshurst Community Allotment two nights running, after sheds were set ablaze.
The first incident happened at the Cooks Lane site on Friday evening, at around 11pm, and it is understood that tools and a child's playhouse were among the items destroyed.
At a similar time last night (Saturday), Sheldon Fire Station's Green Watch was called out to tackle a second fire. Residents reported seeing flames rising from the plots at around 11.30pm.
The crimes have appalled local people, although there are hopes that the culprits may have been caught on CCTV cameras installed at nearby Endeavour House.
If you have any information about the arson attacks, call Solihull Police on 101.
