Unexplained spontaneous fires are plaguing a South African family while fire-fighters remain baffled.
A heavily traumatised family is dealing with the loss of not only their home and possessions, but also the fact that nobody wants to accommodate them from fear of falling victim to the same thing. "One female fire-fighter just about wet herself when the fire started right in front of her eyes and said she had never seen anything like this," says ward councillor Bonginkosi Shange. "Just this morning we have put out at least three different fires."
Mysterious fires that apparently ignite spontaneously have over the past two weeks destroyed the homes and belongings of a family in Hopewell near Thornville. The freakish fires have burned through the Mthembu family’s main house, two low-cost houses in the yard and another low-cost house belonging to the children, across the street from the main family home.
