Two die in holiday park blaze
Police are investigating the cause of a fire which killed two people at Combe Haven Holiday Park in St Leonards.
Fire fighters pulled a man and a woman from a blazing carvan, but they were pronounced dead at the scene.
A spokesman for Combe Haven said two employees and the owner of a neighbouring caravan had tried to tackle the blaze before fire crews arrived.
He told the BBC: "Our team members and guests are shocked by this tragic accident.
"The owners of the caravan were valued and popular members of the community at Combe Haven."
The couple, both in their 40s, had been owners of the caravan since 2007, he added
Sussex police are investigating.
