South Belfast Alliance Representative Anna Lo has expressed her disgust at a suspected arson attack affecting three businesses in South Belfast. The fire started today at 5.30 am on University Avenue.

Anna Lo said: "I was shocked to hear of this fire last night. The police are looking into the prospect of the fire being caused by arson. I would be appalled if this was found to be a deliberate attack.

"This will hit the businesses involved very hard and I hope they can get back to work as quickly as possible."
