A fire this morning razed several homes on Lombard Street leaving many homeless.
The Lot 18 Lombard Street address, which borders Broad Street, was described as a `tenement yard’ which had two main houses in its compound and several shacks that were homes to several families. Initial reports say that the fire started just before 7 am in the bottom flat of one of the houses but it is not clear what triggered the blaze.
