'Spiteful' man, 61, set ex-wife's Amblecote home on fire whilst son was inside
A 'spiteful' ex-husband who set fire to his ex-wife's home has been jailed for arson.
Clive Bell, aged 61, set fire to the home in Amblecote last summer whilst his son was inside the house.
Bell doused the Penfields Road house in flames on August 26 after threatening his ex-wife over the phone as she was on the way to Oxford.
Bell left the scene and the house was gutted by fire as his ex-wife rushed back to the property to be greeted by her distraught son and mother.
The West Midlands Fire Service sent 13 firefighters to tackle the blaze. Bell was arrested within days and has been remanded in custody.
