John Bull Chophouse Fire and Community Response | Manchester News
Description
A fire tore through the beloved John Bull Chophouse in Wigan early Tuesday, thankfully leaving no injuries—but it’s hit hard emotionally. Police arrested a 44-year-old man on suspicion of arson, burglary, and possessing class A drugs. The owners, heartbroken, called it “a death in the family,” while the community rallied with overwhelming support: over £11k raised, a benefit gig planned, and neighbors and emergency crews praised for their quick response. This outpouring is giving hope that the iconic spot can rise again.
