Arsonist to serve seven years for jockeys’ deaths

A LABOURER has been told that he must serve at least seven and a half years in prison for killing two promising young jockeys who died when he torched a flat in a drunken revenge attack.

Peter Brown started a fire after being refused entry to a party at flats in Norton, North Yorkshire, in September last year.

The blaze ripped through the block, killing Jamie Kyne, 18, from Kiltrogue, Co Galway, and Jan Wilson, 19, from Forfar, Scotland.
