Police investigating boat and bin fires at Whyalla Stuart A BOAT and trailer have been deliberately set alight during a crime series at Whyalla Stuart. Police and Metropolitan Fire Service crews were called to Parfitt St, about 1.20am on Sunday, to find the boat on fire in a driveway. The boat and trailer were destroyed in the blaze and there was damage to a neighbouring house. The occupants were woken by the fire and escaped uninjured. Police are treating the fire as suspicious and said they believed it was linked to two wheelie bin fires and the theft of electronic items from another boat on Jenkins Ave. They wish to speak to anyone - including the occupants of a white Holden sedan seen leaving the area around the time of the fire - who may have seen any suspicious behaviour. Anyone with information about this incident should contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or at the website here. Originally published as Boat, trailer torched at Whyalla Stuart
