A man remains in custody after being arrested in connection with a house fire in Hereford.
Emergency services were called to Fallowfield close on Friday night.
West Mercia Police said: “It is believed the fire was started deliberately and it is being treated as arson.
“A 29-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of arson with intent to endangering life and was taken into custody.”
Sheds housing nearly 200,000 broiler chickens at a Herefordshire farm are to be demolished and rebuilt to a higher standard.
A planning application by Avara Foods, one of the county’s largest employers, says the replacement sheds at Parkway Farm, Madley west of Hereford would have the same footprint as the current eight within the two-hectare site, and “will not result in any increase in floor area, bird numbers, or operational intensity”.
