Four stores destroyed in Regent St fire

Inferno: Fire as it ravaged the Clairan’s-owned building and nearby Boyo’s Fashion on Regent Street yesterday morning. Smoke can be seen emanating from the Indra’s Fashions building immediately west of the fire. It would later be transformed to rubble while the top flat of the Lucky Dollar Store to the west of Indra’s was destroyed.

Four stores in three buildings on the northern side of Regent Street between Camp and Alexander streets were gutted by fire yesterday morning leaving millions of dollars in damage and the owner of one them collapsed at the scene and was later pronounced dead at the hospital.

Four Chinese citizens were also dramatically rescued
