A car was deliberately set alight on the driveway of the house in Clay Lane, Doncaster, spreading to a brick built porch, which was badly damaged.

Luckily, firefighters prevented the fire from spreading further. Neighbours alerted the occupant, who was already out of the property when fire crews arrived at the scene shortly after 5am this morning.
