Detectives investigating an arson attack in Leeds, which saw a mother and her two young children rescued by firefighters, are appealing to trace a taxi driver who may have information.
Police were called to Hill Top Mount, in Harehills, by the fire service at 1.30am on Wednesday 24 January after reports of a fire and people trapped in the mid-terrace property.
The mother and her son, aged five, and daughter, aged 14, had to be rescued from the house by firefighters.
They were taken to hospital for treatment for the effects of inhaling smoke before later being released.
Investigations at the scene by police and fire specialists confirmed the fire had been started deliberately in the hallway through the letterbox.
Officers are keen to trace the driver of a taxi that collected a fare from the roadside on the A58 Roundhay Road junction with Bayswater Grove around the time of the incident.
