A male has been badly burned in a suspected petrol bomb attack in Glenrothes.
At least one property in Alexander Road was targeted in the early hours of Wednesday morning, it has emerged, although reports suggest that another address further down the street may have also been hit.
Few details have been released by the emergency services at this time, but a spokesman for the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service confirmed that crews were called to Alexander Road shortly after midnight to a report of a fire in a bedroom.
Locals have claimed some sort of petrol bomb was thrown through a window, amid suggestions that a number of children had been inside the property at the time of the incident.
It is understood that one male has been injured, and the extent of his injuries are not yet known.
Emergency services have taped off the street as investigations into what happened got under way.
