Police investigating a fatal flat fire in Worcester have arrested a man. Andrew Heath, aged 52, was found dead at his flat in Chedworth Close, Warndon, after a suspected arson attack in the early hours on the 14th December. West Mercia Police said a man in his 20s was arrested at a property in Rodborough Close, Warndon. A search was carried out and a number of items removed, they said.

The reward would be given to anyone supplying information resulting in the arrest and conviction of those responsible for his death, police said.
