Pensioners lose home, possessions in Enmore fire

The remains of the Enmore Pasture home

An elderly man on Thursday afternoon sustained minor burns about his body when a fire of unknown origin completely destroyed his Enmore, East Coast Demerara house leaving millions in losses.

The fire started around 3 pm and completely gutted the Lot 40 ‘A’ Enmore Pasture, ECD flat house within minutes.

The Guyana Fire Service was alerted and responded a few minutes after but it was too late to save anything.
