Syd home fire cause may never be known December 1, 2014 - 3:10AM Authorities are trying to find what caused a Sydney home fire that claimed the lives of a renowned cameraman and his daughter. The ABC has reported its former cameraman Les Wasley, 86, and his daughter Linda, believed to be in her 40s, died when a fire tore through their northern beaches Bayview home in the early hours of Sunday. Mr Wasley's son, an off-duty Narrabeen firefighter, spent the day in hospital with his mother, who made it out of the burning home with a suspected broken leg. Mr Wasley was a celebrated cameraman and cinematographer and was recently inducted into the Australian Cinematographers Society Hall of Fame. Firefighters say they may never know what started the fire due to the extensive damage it has caused but think it may have started in a bedroom.
