CCTV appeal after suspected arson at Tesco in Hove

A CCTV image of a man police want to talk to in connection with suspected arson in a supermarket foyer in East Sussex has been released.

The fire at the Tesco supermarket in Church Road, Hove, broke out at about 04:20 BST on Thursday, officers said.

The store was closed for several hours after packets of barbecue charcoal were allegedly set alight.

East Sussex Fire & Rescue Service said three fire engines were sent to tackle the blaze.

A dark-haired man wearing a white shirt or light jumper with black writing, blue jeans and white trainers was seen on CCTV.

Officers appealed for anyone with information or footage that could help the investigation to contact them.
