Firefighters responded around 1:45 a.m., and the blaze damaged the ambulances (gas canisters exploded) and shattered windows in a nearby flat; six fire engines and about 40 firefighters were dispatched. No injuries were reported, and nearby houses were evacuated as a precaution. Investigators are reviewing CCTV and are looking for three hooded suspects; no arrests have been made.
