A mother of two from Bristol who was the victim of an arson attack in the early hours of Saturday morning said she no longer feels safe.
Aaliyah Hussain and her two young sons were asleep in their house in Bradley Stoke at about 3.45am when the garage was set alight.
A passer-by alerted Mrs Hussain who fled the house with her children and police and fire crews were called.
Mrs Hussain said: "It was extra scary because my husband was away for the night.
"We were really lucky in one sense that the main house is not touched, but everything that was in the garage was destroyed.
"I can't sleep I'm really scared. I really thought I was a strong person. It's the worst thing not feeling safe."
Avon and Somerset Police has launched an investigation. A 17-year-old youth who was arrested has been released.
