Appeal to trace significant witness in Smallfield arson investigation

On Friday, 12 April, officers attended a mobile home and several cars on fire at an address on Chapel Road in Smallfield.

Surrey Fire & Rescue requested police attendance as the fire was believed to have been started deliberately. Three people were given medical attention at the scene, and one was taken to hospital as a precaution.

Two women in their 30s have been arrested on suspicion of arson. They have been released on bail while our enquiries continue.

We are now looking to trace a significant witness who drove past in their lorry and spoke to a member of the fire brigade at the scene.

If this was you, or you know someone who was driving along Chapel Road in Smallfield between 5.30am and 6am on 12 April, we want to hear from you. If you have any information that might assist our investigation, please get in touch quoting PR/45240040780 via:
