fire

Thick smoke billows as dumped tyres and derelict vehicles burned at this lot in Mc Doom, East Bank Demerara yesterday afternoon. The fire reportedly started when a ‘junkie’ lit a fire and it caught on to the dry grass and spread to the tyres. The incident reportedly started around 5.30 pm and the fire department was called to quell the blaze. (Tarick Pertab photo)
