A fire which tore through a block of flats at around 11pm on Monday is thought to be arson.
Six fire engines, more than fifty firefighters and two aerial ladder platforms tackled the blaze in Worcester.
Det Sgt Phil Colley said: “We are treating the fire as suspicious at this time and are continuing to work closely with the fire brigade as investigations continue. Anyone with information should contact police immediately.”
The building is now unsafe to enter and most of the roof has collapsed. Nearby buildings were also damaged by the fire. Structural engineers will be carrying out a full inspection to assess the damage.
No one was injured in the fire.
