Fire at Crooked House Pub raises questions about police investigation and demolition

Steven

Hey Stephany, did you see that fire at the Crooked House pub?

Stephany

Yes, I did. It's such a shame. The police are treating it as arson.

Steven

That's terrible. I can't believe someone would do that. And what's even more concerning is that the pub was demolished just two days after the fire.

Stephany

I know, right? The local community is furious about it. Dudley North's MP is questioning why the police didn't intervene in the demolition while their investigation was still ongoing.

Steven

Exactly. It seems like a huge oversight. If the police were investigating the fire, why would they allow the site to be demolished? It could have interfered with their forensic examination.

Stephany

I completely agree. It raises strong questions about the whole situation. The lack of information being provided to the public is causing rising anger and dissatisfaction.

Steven

And it's not just any building. The Crooked House was a historical landmark that meant a lot to the local community. It's heartbreaking to see it treated this way.

Stephany

Absolutely. It's not just about the building itself, but also the memories and experiences people had there. It's a loss for the entire community.

Steven

I hope the police and fire investigators can gather enough evidence to find out who is responsible for the fire. This kind of behavior should not go unpunished.

Stephany

I hope so too. It's important for the community to have closure and for justice to be served. We'll have to keep an eye on the updates from the police.

Steven

Definitely. This is a story that needs to be followed closely. The public deserves answers and transparency from the authorities.

Stephany

Well, I have to go. I must attend a meeting. Let's catch up later.

Steven

Sure, take care. Talk to you soon!

Stephany

Bye!
