DEVASTATED fire-fighters were finally given the go-ahead to begin probing the cause of a fatal pub fire that robbed them of a heroic colleague yesterday.
Grim faced fire chiefs spent much of yesterday (tues) locked in close discussions with Health and Safety officials outside the burned out shell of the Balmoral Bar in the Dalry area of Edinburgh.
A second separate probe involving specialist teams from colleagues at Lothian and Borders Police is widely expected to begin today (Wed).
Seasoned detectives from L&B’s CID unit were already on scene yesterday as every effort is made to find out what started the huge fire.
