A FIRE was spotted at a Basingstoke play park last night (April 18), thought to have been started by young vanadals. Residents near the play area on Oakridge Road, known as New Park, heard a “bang”, and then saw flames and smoke coming from the play equipment. One eye-witness, Callum Hartley, told the Gazette: “I was passing the park just after the bang, and the flames lit up. “A group of about 4-5 kids then ran off, heading towards Popley area, before a few people called the fire brigade.” He continued: “Someone had set fire to a swing set, and the rubber flooring, possibly with a can of deodorant.”
