By Councillor Fullerton - Fire at Saughton Park Enclosure - Mr Kyle McAndrew

“Council notes:

The recent reported fire at Saughton Park Enclosure, caused by a deliberate act of mindless vandalism by a gang of youths in the area.

Council will have also read about the heroism of a local resident Kyle McAndrew who saw the fire from his garden and ran to the enclosure. Mr McAndrew pulled an injured man from the seat of the blaze without any regard for his personal safety.

Council agrees Mr McAndrew’s unquestionable bravery in saving a man’s life should be acknowledged and that the Lord Provost recognise this in an appropriate way.”
