Four firemen are being questioned by police after two phones disappeared from the home of Traffic Chief Dion Moore, where they had responded to a fire.
One of the phones was later found under the driver’s seat of a fire service vehicle that responded.
Just after midnight, the bottom flat of Moore’s Lot 89 Belfield, East Coast Demerara home caught on fire. The origin of the fire is unknown but reports suggested that it may have been electrical in origin.
Guyana Fire Service Head of Operations Compton Sparman confirmed to Stabroek News that the firemen were being questioned by police about the disappearance of the cellular phones.
Sparman explained that after the report was made by Moore’s wife to the supervising officer, a search was conducted and one of the phones was found under the driver’s
seat in the fire service vehicle. “Now common sense would tell us a civilian would not go and do that,” he said. He added that based on the results of the investigation, the Fire Service would take disciplinary action.
