An Ottos man barely escaped with his life when his house caught fire early Tuesday morning.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Zaza Moses said he was sleeping when the fire swept through his home.<\/p>\n

\u201cI heard bottle breaking. That mean the fire was already in the house catching the bottles and breaking them and it woke me up\u201d,\u00a0Moses told state media.<\/p>

He said when he woke up he saw “the whole house on fire. I had to jump out and save myself\u201d.<\/p>

Katamba Henry, a neighbour, said: \u201cyou can hear like two bottle bust, like somebody throw two bottles but you nuh really nuh who because the dog deh ah bark maybe about a couple minutes after that\u201d.<\/p>\n

He said after that all he saw was fire and water.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

There was no electricity attached to the wooden house causing some villagers to suspect the home was maliciously set ablaze.<\/p>\n

Moses, who said everything was lost in the fire, pleaded for assistance from the public.<\/p>
