Engineers inspect station

The severely damaged structure of a bus station in Berkshire is undergoing an inspection following a suspected arson attack.

At 01 52 (1.52 a.m.) on Sunday 30th October, the Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service received a call to attend a blaze that had spread across the whole roof of Slough Bus Station.

A spokesperson for Slough Borough Council said its structural engineers were surveying the damage and the health and safety aspects of the building.

Thames Valley Police said reports suggest the fire began in a bus that was on site at the time.
