A TEENAGER will be sentenced at a later date after pleading guilty yesterday to arson being reckless as to whether life would be endangered.

Jake Underwood, 19, of Manningham Lane, Bradford, admitted the charge when he appeared at Bradford Crown Court yesterday. He denied a charge of arson with intent to endanger life and the prosecution offered no evidence on that count.

The fire took place on March 15 in New Cross Street, West Bowling, Bradford. Barrister Gerald Hendron asked for sentence to be adjourned for probation and psychiatric reports. Underwood was remanded in custody.
