A BROADWALK bridge on a Stroud nature reserve was partly destroyed in an alleged arson attack by juveniles.
Police believe the wooden bridge near Hyett Road in Cashes Green was set alight deliberately.
Around £6,000 worth of damage was caused to a 20 foot length of the crossing. Nearby trees were also burned.
PC Jim Andrews warned of the dangers of playing with fire and said three youngsters have now been arrested.
