Boys held over health centre fire

Collapsed roof at the Manor Park centre Three teenagers have been arrested on suspicion of starting a fire which destroyed a medical centre in Leeds and left 14,000 people unable to see a GP.

More than 70 firefighters were called to the Manor Park centre in Bellmount Close, Bramley, on 22 July.

The blaze destroyed the complex, which included a doctor's surgery, chemist and first floor flat.

Police said three 13-year-old boys were held on suspicion of arson on Wednesday and have since been released on bail.

Equipment and medical records were also destroyed in the blaze. An emergency surgery has been set up at the Bramley Clinic in Town Street while the centre is rebuilt.
