Wimborne Minster residents woke up to 13 burnt cars and a damaged historic building
“Shocking, isn’t it?” said hairdresser Jackie Shearing, gazing at the burnt-out shell of a hatchback wedged in a passageway close to the centre of Wimborne Minster. “This is such a dozy old town, nothing ever happens here.”
The day before something certainly had happened. The Dorset town awoke to find it had been caught up in a series of arson attacks, which wrecked 13 cars in the area, damaged a historic building and left residents dashing around trying to save themselves and their vehicles.
