Vagrants occupying abandoned properties are a growing concern as squatters appear to have set yet another house on fire.   

Last night, fire crews extinguished the blaze in an unoccupied house at Upper Carter’s Gap, Christ Church.

Vagrants had reportedly taken up residence in the abandoned structure, and it’s believed their activities helped start the fire.

Residents in the area say they are concerned and one resident recounted last night’s events.
