Accused said after blaze: ‘Someone’s done this’

A SURVIVOR of a blaze which killed young Galway jockey Jamie Kyne and Scottish jockey Jan Wilson told a jury the man accused of starting the fire was pacing up and down before firefighters arrived, saying: “Someone’s done this."

Chef Christopher Crosby described how he escaped from the flames in a block of flats in Norton, near Malton, North Yorkshire, in the early hours of September 5 last year by jumping from a window.

Leeds Crown Court has heard the fire claimed the lives of apprentice jockeys Jamie Kyne, aged 18, from Kiltrogue, Co Galway and Jan Wilson, aged 19, from Forfar, Scotland.
