A blaze in a shed which killed a fireman was started deliberately, the person who discovered the fire told an inquest today.
Father-of-five Joe McCloskey (50) fell into the flaming hotel storehouse after the roof which he was standing on collapsed in November 2003 in Limavady, Co Derry.
General manager Willis McLaughlin said it was arson. Fireman Stephen Loughlin, who was helping the victim hammer holes in the roof at the time said Mr McCloskey suffered horrific burns.
