A fire crew from Huntingdon spent three hours dealing with the fires along Hartford Road, Huntingdon.

A Cambridgeshire Fire and Rescue Service spokesperson said: "These were started deliberately and having to deal with these may have delayed us getting to a real emergency. Arson is a crime, not a bit of fun."
