After six fires in six days police in Bridlington say some of them could be linked.

Last night a wheelie bin on fire was pushed up against the front door of a flat on Quay Road.

A man and woman have had to be treated for smoke inhalation.

The other fires were:

• 21st January - 7:49pm - A wheelie bin was set on fire on the Well Lane Bypass.
• 22nd January - 3:59pm - A warehouse on Hilderthorpe was broken into and set on fire.
• 23rd January - 5:47pm - Rubbish was set on fire inside a disused warehouse on Station Road.
• 23rd January - 8:14pm - Car fire on Bempton Oval near Marton Road.

Inspector Colin Waddington, who's from Bridlington Police, says they're taking the fires very seriously.
