Roofer who caused Mount Murray fire avoids prison

A roofer who caused a 'calamitous' fire at Mount Murray has been ordered to carry out community service. 

65-year-old Roy Cross was sentenced at Douglas Courthouse today. 

A jury found him guilty of three health and safety failures last year - it followed his work on the Santon site on November 7th 2013. 

Cross was ordered to carry out 240 hours of unpaid work and ordered to pay £2,400 in prosecution costs.
