A TEENAGE girl from Bolton accused of starting a fire which killed a firefighter has had her case adjourned.

The 15-year-old, who cannot be named for legal reasons, has been charged with arson with intent.

She was due to enter a plea at Manchester Crown Court today but the hearing was put back to a date which has not yet been fixed.

Bury firefighter Stephen Hunt died tackling a blaze at a hair salon in Manchester's Northern Quarter on July 13 last year.
