Car set on fire
A car was overturned and set on fire outside a house on Lincoln Road early on Sunday. A police spokesman said last evening that the car, a Standard 10, was probably set on fire by gang members. The car might have belonged to a gang member,
he said. When the police arrived the car was unidentifiable, and no arrest was made, as the police were unable to identify the culprits among the big group of people gathered at the scene. The incident happened about 5 a.m.
