AN ESTRANGED wife set fire to her husband’s belongings, causing emergency services to race out to clear it.

Hampshire Fire and Rescue were called to what they believed to be a small fire at a home on Brokenford Lane, Totton, at around 7pm last night (May 18).

However, when the crew from Redbridge Fire Station arrived they found a woman burning the man’s personal items in a blaze at the home.

A spokesperson for the fire station said that the woman had filmed the incident on her phone before sending it to the man.

He then arrived before the fire was extinguished later.
