Stabroek News was unable to ascertain the circumstances of the fire, which began just before 3 pm but a resident said that earlier the area was hit by two blackouts. A man and his grandchildren were said to have been living at the house. Witnesses said by the time the fire service responded, the entire top flat was engulfed in flames. A resident said the fire-fighters worked hard and managed to prevent the fire from spreading to nearby buildings.
