An investigation is underway after a 'wilful' fire was set at a block of flats in Peterhead.
Emergency services were called to the scene on Maiden Street at around 11.50am on Friday, 3 November.
There have been no reports of any injuries.
Police Constable Raegan Ingram said: “We are keen to establish the circumstances as to how this fire was started, and although there was no one within the property at the time, it is one in a block of six flats and could have caused serious injury to other residents had it not been extinguished.
“I would appeal to anyone who was in the area at the time and saw anything suspicious or anyone with dash cam footage to contact us.
