POLICE are appealing for witnesses after suspicious bushfires at Tarrawanna earlier in the week.
Emergency services were called to bushland on Hawthorne Street about 6.40am on Tuesday where they spotted three males, described as teenagers, leaving the scene on foot towards the Towradgi Creek residential area.
The fire was quickly brought under control by Rural Fire Service (RFS) personell, with about 1.5 acres of bushland burnt in the fire.
The fire followed another on Monday, which burnt about half an acre of bushland nearby.
Police have increased patrols in the area due to these suspicious bushfire incidents, and inquiries continue. Anyone with information that may assist investigators are urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
