Three boys have been arrested as part of an investigation into a spate of criminal damage in Stoke-on-Trent on bonfire night.
Officers were called to a number of areas in Snow Hill, Shelton, on 5 November.
Reports included a large group of masked youths deliberately causing damage to a number of vehicles and buildings.
The group smashed a window at the Hanley Masonic Hall and threw a firework inside which set fire.
Fire crews were called to the scene and extinguished the blaze - no one was injured.
Three 16-year-old boys, from Stoke-on-Trent, have been arrested on suspicion of arson and criminal damage.
All have been questioned in custody and released under conditional police bail while enquiries continue.
