The façade and main door of an office were targeted in a suspected arson today, August 20, 2013, at about 2 a.m., in Triq it-Torri, Sliema.
It was the owner of a nearby bar, a 31-year-old who lives in Qrendi, who spotted a burning tyre before extinguishing it using a fire extinguisher. He then pushed it onto the pavement to avoid further damage.
The property belongs to a 36-year-old man residing in Sliema.
