THE police search is on for a person who has set fire to four letter boxes in Frankston over the past few weeks.

The person twice set fire to an Australia Post post box in Heatherhill Rd, Frankston, 10pm, Wednesday 2 August and 8.30pm, Monday 14 August.

The same person also set fire to letters at a post box at the corner of Lindrum Rd and Hampden Avenue, Frankston, Monday 7 August, and one on the corner of Hill and Deane streets, Frankston, near Bunnings, Monday 14 August.

Detective Senior Constable Bernard Dowling, of Frankston CIU, said the person, of unknown gender, was seen lighting paper and dropping it in the boxes. He or she possibly had a “man-bun” hairstyle.
