A second man was arrested on Tuesday as investigations continue into an attempted murder and arson of four cars in Pyla earlier this month, police said on Wednesday.

A 27-year-old man was arrested after a court warrant.

On August 21, police arrested an 18-year-old for the same offences. He appeared before Larnaca district court the following day, where an eight-day remand order was issued.

Larnaca police continue investigations.
