A teenager has had their bail extended for a fourth time in as many months after being arrested in connection with multiple arson attacks on the outskirts of the city.

The fires began on July 22, 2023, at a disused building on the May Gurney and Deal Ground site in Trowse - which is earmarked for nearly 700 homes.

There was another blaze at a disused hospital in Thorpe St Andrew on October 19, before a third - at Trowse Pumping Station - on November 12.

Despite being arrested just four days after the pumping station fire, no charges have yet been made and the unnamed teen has been re-bailed for a fourth time.
