A 67-year-old man has been arrested and charged following two incidents of wilful fire-raising at Saunders Court, Kirkcaldy.
The man has been reported to the procurator fiscal and will appear in court at a later date.
Police have thanked the public for their assistance in this enquiry.
The Courier told how the lives of elderly residents were put at risk during two incidents at a Fife sheltered housing complex.
The incidents occurred between Thursday May 21, and Saturday May 23, at Saunders Court in Kirkcaldy.
Police say an unknown number of suspects attempted to set fire to the door and window of two properties belonging to elderly female residents from the Chinese community.
The fires were described as “the culmination of a series of anti-social behaviour incidents which have occurred over the last few weeks”.
