An arsonist is facing jail after a serious house fire in Nottingham. Abraham English was said to have started the blaze that required the attention of four fire trucks, police and paramedics in November last year.
Extreme damage was caused to the house English's ex-partner lived in with three of his children and one other child, with the majority of the household out on the day of the fire on November 17, Nottingham Crown Court heard.

English jumped out of a window and was motionless for some time, the court heard. But he got up with a limp and went back inside, locking everyone out and himself in.
Police forced entry to the property and kicked down a lounge door, as there was a pet or child gate against it, which English had barricaded. Prosecuting, Alex Wolfson, said: "When police found him, he was trying to kill himself by cutting his own throat. He was tasered to prevent him doing any more harm.
"The wound was bleeding. Police tried to keep pressure on it. Thankfully, the wound was not serious or in the right place, because he was fine, at least physically".
The 34-year-old pleaded guilty to arson being reckless and was due to be sentenced today. But Judge Stuart Rafferty KC expressed concern about the case and ordered a second psychiatric
