Rowfant Fire Investigated As Arson

Last month’s fire at the Rowfant fuel depot near Crawley is being investigated as arson.  

The fire seriously damaged a fleet of fuel tankers as well as damaging other vehicles, and items stored at the three other industrial units at the Rowfant Business Centre.  The West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service worked for a number of days to ensure the fire didn’t spread.  No one was injured.  

Sussex Police urges anyone who saw or heard anything suspicious to get in touch by phoning 101 quoting Operation Wadhurst.
