Arson inquiry to fingerprint children

Arson inquiry to fingerprint children

Police investigating an arson attack in which a mother and her two daughters died yesterday began a blanket fingerprinting campaign which is to include children as young as seven.

Seven hundred families on the Gurnos estate in Merthyr Tydfil, Mid-Glamorgan, have been asked to allow their children to be included in the campaign following the discovery of a fingerprint at the victims' home.
