Minxie Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 That wasn't the only fire around that area on Saturday night I believe. I know of somebody else who had to leave their house because of another 'suspicious' fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amadeus Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Now, we could of course now argue that it is in bad taste and sensationalist to request or post images or video of what has now become a fatal incident. But we won't do that now, no - it's news, and people want to know, if they admit it or not. And I got flak for a frigging car accident with no injuries - tsk....

thebees Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Is that the same house as went on fire in +/- 1984? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oogie boogie Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 spooky. I haven't got any footage, but I've got the Ghostbusters building toy so given some matches and a small bottle of petrol I'm sure I could re-inact it Adam and Joe styleee.

WTF Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 spooky. I haven't got any footage, but I've got the Ghostbusters building toy so given some matches and a small bottle of petrol I'm sure I could re-inact it Adam and Joe styleee. Can we behave? Someone died. someone's always dying, humans die every minute of every day, only once usually. has it been determined whether the fire actually was responsible for the lost bodies death?? thought not, just a 'reasonable assumption' yet to be proved. i assume he/she was lost cos the headline says found?? who keeps losing these bodies for people to find?? careless undertakers?? so a news program wants to know if theres video, good idea to ask really, i'm sure plenty of camera phones were in use at the time. i don't recall any moral problems with other allegedly fatal fire footage getting aired?

Albert Tatlock Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 They're treating it as murder for the moment - 4th mysterious fire in the same small area over the weekend - ish. Around 60 coppers onto it. They need information, so if you know anything let them know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
