A house and caravan have been destroyed in an arson attack in Cookstown.
It happened in the Kildress Terrace area shortly after 10pm last night.
Police say it was started deliberately in a caravan and had spread to a property close by.
Both were gutted as a result and a second house in the vicinity also suffered smoke damage.
Detective Sergeant Robinson said, "NIFRS has ruled this to be deliberate ignition and so we are treating this as arson endangering life.
"I want to appeal to anyone who was in the area, between 10pm and 10:05pm and saw what happened, or who has information which may assist our investigation to call detectives in Mid Ulster on the non emergency number 101, quoting reference 1400 of 21/03/19."
