Larnaca police probe shooting and arson in Agios Theodoros

Larnaca police are investigating two criminal incidents in Agios Theodoros, though it is not yet known whether the two cases are connected.

In the first incident, owners of a betting shop reported to police that morning that their vehicles had been shot at and damaged. CID officers attended the scene to carry out examinations.

Separately, at 4.40am, police received a report of a car on fire in a field in Agios Theodoros. Officers and members of EMAK (Special Disaster Response Unit) attended and extinguished the blaze. The car was found to belong to a 28-year-old Greek national. Further examinations at the scene that morning uncovered flammable material.
