Police are appealing for witnesses following a suspicious fire at a former north-east care home.
The fire happened at Blythewood House in Blythewood House, Inverurie, at around 1.45pm on Sunday.
Detective Constable Richard Barnwell said: “We are treating this fire as suspicious and would urge anyone with information or who saw anything unusual or suspicious in the days leading up to the fire to contact us.
“This was an extensive fire which required the attendance of the fire service for several hours. Police also attended and there were numerous road closures in the area while the incident was dealt with.
“We would ask that anyone who saw people at the building or in the area on Sunday or in the days leading up to the fire to contact police on 101.”
