Investigations Launched After Two Suspicious Clare Fires

Two separate Garda investigations have been launched into suspicious fires in West and North Clare.

Emergency services were alerted last Tuesday morning following reports of smoke coming from a house at the Lodge, Woodgate, Kilrush.

It’s understood that a matress caught fire, causing extensive smoke damage to the house.

It’s one of two fires that begun under similar circumstances – Clare’s Cime Prevention Officer Sergeant Joe Downey has details of a second one Ennistymon.
