“Initially, I smelt something was burning. I tried to run in to check, but the house was already in flames. It was already too late,” Mr Young said.
“All I could do was tell my wife and son to move out because our lives were more important. All I managed to save was one of our vehicles and the clothes we are wearing.”
One of the neighbour’s houses was partially burnt.
