Vandals burn down camping hut

Arsonists have targeted a Kinver camping hut, burning it to the ground, and causing more than 20 thousand pounds worth of damage.

It happened in the early hours of Tuesday morning when vandals set fire to the High Acres Woodcraft Folk hut in Compton.

Bob Sandall and his family have been running the popular hut and equipment container for more than 45 years, pouring thousands of pounds of their own money into its upkeep.

The group regularly lays on activities such as camping and walking trips for youngsters.  Police are urging witnesses to come forward.
