Police Commissioner Frank Prendergast is warning communities to take extra precaution when lighting a fire.

Commissioner Prendergast says with the current dry and windy weather conditions, the fire has become very risky.

SIBC News understands the grass plains close to the Good Samaritan hospital in North Guadalcanal and the Vuvula shop at China Town caught fire last weekend.

Meanwhile, the Police boss clarifies the RSIPF fire brigade delay in attending the Vuvula fire because officers were also attending the fire at Good Samaritan hospital that time.

Police are still to conclude its investigation into the Vuvuala fire.
