Some Bloke In Adelaide's Been Arrested For Lighting A Speed Camera On Fire...Twice

A bloke in Adelaide has been arrested earlier this morning after he was caught lighting a speed camera on fire...twice.

It's understood old mate set a speed camera on fire in Wayville - which is an inner-southern metropolitan area of Adelaide - on the corner of Greenville Rd and ANZAC Hwy.

When fire crews and police arrived to douse the flames, the suspect sped off before capture.

It's then understood he returned a couple of hours later for a second go at it.

A South Australia Police media release says a 40-year-old man from Reynella was arrested at the scene.  

He has been charged with two counts of arson and is expected to appear in court today.
