Police investigating a fire which destroyed a mill in Bradford are trying to trace the driver of a car that was involved in the blaze.

More than 60 firefighters fought to contain the blaze after a car was set alight next to the Jack Walker and Sons mill in Listers Hill Road on 1 October.

Police now know the car, a silver Chevrolet Captiva, was involved in a crash on Legrams Lane hours earlier.

Detectives have appealed for witnesses to the crash to come forward.

There were two men in the Chevrolet when it collided with a white Land Rover Discovery.

The registration number of the car is LT08 ZSW.

Detectives want to speak to anyone who saw the crash, who saw the car being driven around or who saw it being abandoned by the mill.
