    A teenager has been committed to stand trial in the Court of General Gaol Delivery over allegations he took part in three arson attacks against the same family in a week.

    Tobias Andrew Mckee of School Road in Onchan appeared before magistrates at Douglas Courthouse.

    During an earlier hearing, the 18 year old entered no plea to attempting to damage a house in Douglas by fire on July 27, as well as one count each of arson on August 2 and arson with intent to endanger life on August 3.

    He was bailed in the sum of £500 with a 10pm to 4.30am curfew, and will next appear in court at a pre-trial review hearing on January 26.
