FIRE GOT OUT OF CONTROL
The Sandy Point Station is investigating an incident in which a wooden house was damaged by fire and a number of house hold items destroyed, which occurred on Wednesday 11 June 2014 at The Alley, Sandy Point.
Initial investigations revealed that a resident in the area was cleaning an empty piece of land and started a fire burn trash and bush. The fire swiftly got out of control and spread to a neighbours house causing damage to the house and destroyed a number house hold items. One person is currently in police custody assisting with investigations.
Commissioner CG Walwyn therefore takes this opportunity to inform general public that it is offence to light fire on any piece land without the approval or consent of the Fire and Rescue Services Department.
