Four teenage boys have been charged following a building blaze in Glasgow last month.
Police say they were called to a building fire on Carlton Place in the city's Gorbals area on Monday, August 5.
The force was alerted to the incident at around 8.20pm.
Now, officers have revealed four youngsters - two aged 15 and two aged 16 - have been charged in connection.
A report will be sent to the Children's Reporter.
During the inferno, seven fire trucks were sent to battle the blaze.
The Scottish Fire and Rescue Service previously said they were called to a 'well-developed' fire in a three-storey building - which was not in use.
Luckily, no one was injured during the incident.
