The residents of a house of multiple occupancy in Newport – including a mum-to-be of 30 weeks – had to evacuate overnight when a fire broke out.
Emergency services were called to Ceasers Road in the town shortly before 00:40 following reports of a property fire.
Island Echo is told that an ‘intoxicated’ resident had a female guest around last night, breaking the lockdown rules put in place by the Government due to coronavirus.
For reasons unknown it is said that the guest set a fire within the property during her visit.
Fire crews from Newport and Cowes were mobilised to the scene alongside the Isle of Wight Ambulance Service and Police, with initial reports suggesting 2 people were trapped inside.
The fire was reported to be located in a bedroom on the first floor.
Firefighters used 2 hose reels and 4 breathing apparatus to extinguish the fire.
According to one resident, the property has been left blackened by the smoke and the electric supply has been cut.
The pregnant woman attempting to isolate from risk has had to seek shelter at a family member’s house.






























































































Stupid selfish woman hope she gets locked up for this got to be attempted murder.
I do hope the arsonist gets the full force of the law applied. Attempting to take life is ever so serious. And getting forecrews doing anything other than an accident is despicable.
Nutter! Glad the pregnant lady is ok.
Nutter lock her up throw away the key as if the emergency services haven’t got enough to be coping with vile person
Stupid immature pig!! Get a grip, look at what’s going on around you! Those people that saved you have families, and don’t need to be out unnecessarily.
She should be made to pay for the damage and for pulling fire services out
Plus the £60 fine for ignoring. the law.
How selfish can you get, must have needy issues
No words.. Bang em up!
House of multiple occupancy!!!! Feel sorry for the people who have no choice, you could at least put all the decent ones together, then the crap can just get on with it. Stupid bitch, another waste of space. Hope the pregnant lady is ok
That’s true this is always been my argument they should put all the decent people together & all the dodgy characters can fight amongst themselves. But unfortunately this is where the “Rainbow Flag” comes into play ! Everyone together living in harmony. Whilst the rich live in their big houses
& then tell us to be kind & love each other.
What exactly do you mean by the rainbow flag!!?
I think they mean people from all walks of life (I hope that’s what they mean)
For years the social reformers have had the idea that the underclass are only the way they are because of their *unfortunate* background and living conditions and if they can be brought into the community of more decent people, they will become decent people too. Sadly it does not seem to work. What happens instead, is that they make life so intolerable for any decent people having to live among them, that those that can then move away, and those that can’t, suffer in silence because the powers that be are nearly always on the side of the underclass.
Remember this when the council spend our council tax of ‘adult social care’, some of these low life are only fit to sleep in the gutter where they cost us little and harm nothing or no one but themselves.
I think you’ll find ‘Adult Social Care’ is primarily elderly and disabled people. I think you mixed it up with Mental Health Services which is the NHS and therefore not locally funded
Thanks Peter for the info. Either way though, others are paying for some cretin that ought to be lucky to have a shed to reside in.
This care in the community is more expensive than keeping places like Whitecroft open in the long run if this ‘thing’ is mental, not just ‘vile’ and drunk.
Make them do volunteering work for NHS to repay the time and effort of emergency services…..what a 24 carrot plonker they really are.
Most people wouldn’t want someone like that anywhere near them . I certainly wouldn’t. Lock her up and throw away the key
Newport! Say no more.
You up your own arse prat
Stupid stupid woman and no, they won’t learn their wrong doings in the current modern day world as our court systems are namby pambys. Learning is an “eye for an eye”. Round up ALL this lowlifes possessions and incinerate the lot. Leave her in just the knickers she is in!!!!!
What makes you think she wears any?
You’re getting inapproriately excited about this. Mention a female and suddenly it’s no holds barred.
What difference does it make that the scum is female? And why do you assume that anyone commenting about this particular scum, has to be male?
Good morning everyone, still jumping up and down screaming then? Peace be the journey x
Hope judge will remember arson means jail
No excuses and social care does pay for plenty of unworthy people.
Pregnant women have been dying of covid-19 without any underlying health issues. This is out outrageous.
Typical lowlife trash. The isle of wight is full of them. Probably the whole country is full of them, because it is so soft on those sort of people, they are pandered to, and excused their vile behaviour as care workers try to say it is mental illness, which is a slap in the face to people who are mentally ill but not lowlife scum. Shame the bloody virus is not wiping out that sort of trash instead of elderly and probably more decent people.
No one who lives on the Island calls it ‘the Isle of Wight’ when talking to other Islanders. Just sayin’.
I was born here Treesa, and never moved off it. I am merely giving the Island its proper name.
That would be the isle of Vectis then
Hope she gets it one way or another!!
My goodness, you DO sound excited.
lock her up selfish bitch
lock her up selfish bitch do her for attemped murder or manslaughter
Maybe the drunk person had been at one of the pubs opening as a lock-in in West Wight?Just saying
Which pub in West wight
Do many people from newport venture to the west wight for nights out? Dont think so

This is disgusting feel for the people who have suffered from this that poor woman who is pregnant she could of breathed all that smoke in and could of lost her baby and her own life you selfish person we are going through a bad situation as it is and the government are doing it to save lifes and your putting people in danger you’re sick hope you get arrested for what you have done
Scum of the earth! Hope the pregnant lady is ok
What are people doing these days
There is always one idiot. No ifs or buts, the full force of the law should rain down on her.
