A major manhunt is underway in the UK after an arson attack was carried out at house in the early hours of this morning.
The sickening attack which killed three young children at their home in Salford Greater Manchester has prompted police authorities to launch a wide scale search for the culprit.
It is believed three children aged 14, 8 and 7 all died as a result of the blaze which occurred at a house on Jackson Street, Worsley at 4:58am.
The fire which reportedly ripped through the house also left a fourth child aged 3, with serious injuries which are believed to be life threatening.
Meanwhile the children’s mother aged in her 30s was also taken to hospital in serious condition.
According to The Manchester Evening News, Police authorities have said they are currently waiting on forensic results in order to determine the cause of the fire, but they suspect it may have been started after an acceleration was poured through the front door letter box.
