Camden conspiracy Update

Spoiler: show

People in Camden are convinced they know who was behind a huge fire that engulfed much of the market area - but are too scared to tell police.

Several traders and residents believe the blaze which tore through Camden Market in north London is suspicious, but are worried about revenge attacks if they go public.

Sky News cannot reveal the name on locals' lips for legal reasons.

Fire officers and police have refused to be drawn on whether the fire may have been started deliberately.

Specialist investigators are conducting a fingertip search as they try to pinpoint the cause of the blaze.

But it may remain unknown for days because structural engineers still need to assess the safety of some of the buildings.

Meanwhile, a second theory has emerged.

Sky News' Laura Bundock, who is at the scene, has been told by several people that the blaze could be down to an illegal food stall.

She said: "Three sources have told me that an illegal food stall has been whipping out big vats of oil to do the cooking.

"They say that when inspectors were around they weren't doing it, but as soon as they were gone they would be at it again."

But the idea that the fire might be down to one shadowy figure continues to be whispered on the streets of Camden Town.

And the same name has been offered many times to Sky News Online on who might be connected to the blaze.

Blinking back tears, one woman refused to talk on camera about the devastation caused by the fire, which destroyed part of the popular market and gutted celebrity pub The Hawley Arms.

She said if she was known to have talked to a journalist, even just describing the area damaged by the flames, it could make her vulnerable.

Much of the area remains cordoned off to the public.
A man has suffered serious head injuries and five others were injured when a bus diverted by the fire struck a railway bridge.

I think we are going to be hearing about this for a bit.

So help me if they attribute this to anything random. Like Videogames, movies, puzzles. I'm sure they will though.
