MOSSEL BAY NEWS FLASH - One man died, another was seriously injured and one man was left homeless in three separate domestic fires over the weekend.
On Saturday 28 July neighbours in Fischer Street, Asla Park were woken up by smoke and flames.
A man was seriously injured when his house caught fire.
Sources say the man could not afford to pay his outstanding electricity bill and therefore made use of a candle. It is believed that the candle fell over while the man was sleeping.
He is currently being treated in the Mossel Bay Provincial Hospital.
On Sunday 29 July one house and one shack burned down.
The 65-year old pensioner who lived in the shack in Gqunu Street, KwaNonqaba died in the fire.
Shortly after this a house took fire when the stove suddenly engulfed in flames as a resident of the house was cooking. No one was injured but they lost everything in the fire.
