Investigators to wrap up Robb St fire probe next week

The origin of the fire which destroyed sections of a Robb Street, Georgetown store during last month has not yet been determined but as the investigation continues, officials are working on two theories.

When contacted yesterday, Fire Prevention Officer Andrew Holder told Stabroek News that the fire department had received information and as a result was working on two theories.

“We are looking at the electrical angle of it and also at the speculations that there were some amount of welding works being done in the building at the time of the fire,” Holder said.

Investigators are hoping to wrap up the investigation early next week.
