Two charged with arson after huge fire at Gloucester warehouse
Two men from Gloucester have been charged with arson, after a huge fire at a warehouse at the city's docks.
Scott Parker and Martin Rodger, both 19, are appearing at Cheltenham Magistrates Court this morning. Although derelict and empty, plans had been submitted to turn the building near the city's Baker's Quay into apartment blocks. It is reasonably close to the Fanzone, where thousands of fans had gathered to watch the Rugby World Cup match between England and Australia.
More than a hundred firefighters tackled the blaze on Saturday night.
