Ilkley Moor fire: Woman arrested
A woman has been arrested after a fire broke out on Ilkley Moor - a month after a blaze caused significant damage in the area.
At its height, about 50 firefighters tackled the latest blaze. West Yorkshire Fire & Rescue said its control room took over 65 emergency calls about the fire, which was "largely out" by 11:35 BST. The suspect, 48, was arrested after members of the public reported a woman "behaving suspiciously" near the fire. West Yorkshire Police said the blaze was close to the cattle grid on Hangingstone Road, which had to be closed. In a statement, the force said: "Police were called to moorland at Ilkley near Hangingstone Road at about 9.55am this morning to a report of a fire and suspicious behaviour by a female at the location." Over Easter weekend, more than 70 firefighters were called to Ilkley Moor and a helicopter was deployed after a large area of moorland caught fire.
