A FIRE at a car hire firm is being treated as 'deliberate'.

Firefighters from Bradford were called to the vehicle rental company on Canal Road at around 9.30pm last night, where a Peugeot was ablaze.

A West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue spokesman said the fire spread to a carport and caused damage.

A hose reel was used to put the fire out and firefighters stayed at the scene for around half an hour.

In another incident, Cleckheaton firefighters were called to Whitechapel Road at around 10.45pm, where a Mercedes was on fire.

They stayed at the scene for around 30 minutes and police were informed.
