Celtic chief Peter Lawwell firebomb probe cops draw blank in search of yobs who torched home

Police have drawn a blank in their hunt for the yobs who torched the home of Celtic chairman Peter Lawwell.

Three cars were set alight in the driveway of the property in upmarket Thorntonhall, Lanarkshire. The inferno, which happened two years ago today (FRI), forced Lawwell and his terrified family to flee to safety.

Emergency services raced to the scene and at one point as many as eight fire engines were present. No one was injured in the blaze but the vehicles and garage were destroyed in the attack which police treated as wilful fire raising.
