A fire that destroyed a crumbling hotel in Fife was started deliberately according to police.
Cops in the Kingdom say they are following a "positive line of enquiry" in identifying the person responsible for the blaze that destroyed the Lundin Links hotel in Leven on Thursday August 18. The inferno began at around 8.40pm and took firefighters around 17 hours to extinguish.
The hotel had been closed for eight years and in the interim had become a frequent target of vandals and firebugs. Fife Council confirmed on Monday that the building is damaged beyond repair and will have to be demolished.
