VILLAGERS are living in fear following a petrol bomb attack.

Three bottles containing petrol were set alight and left on the doorstep of a cottage in Chapel Street, Belthorn. Luckily the house owner came home and managed to put out the blazing bottles after her shock find.

It was believed that the wrong house had been chosen for the attack.
