Such tragic news. Condolences to the family and also to the fire services involved. To loose so many lives last night must seem like they have the most harrowing of jobs this morning. :(

Re: Tragic House Fire In Accrington
 

I think it's standard police procedure to treat any serious fire as suspicious until proved otherwise. They do that to protect the scene.

I knew the lady quite well and it is a terribly sad event for family and friends and as has already been posted, for the community as she was a very valuable member of the community and worked very hard to promote harmony.

I agree with Stanerlee, please don't speculate as to the causes on here as it is being investigated by the police at this stage.
