Two houses in Enterprise torched by men seeking ‘Pumpkin’

The burnt remains of the Church Street, Enterprise house

Investigators are currently on the hunt for three men who are believed to have set alight two Enterprise, East Coast Demerara houses within hours on Friday; an act which is suspected to be linked to the April 27th  piracy attack off of Suriname.

A source close to the investigation related to the Sunday Stabroek that while efforts were being made up to late yesterday afternoon to locate the three suspects, one of the theories the police are presently pursuing is that the fires might be related to the piracy attack since at least one of the victims is a fisherman.

Around 7pm on Friday, three men arrived at Lot 450 Church Street, Enterprise and enquired about an individual by the name of ‘Pumpkin”.  The men then forcibly entered the house which was later discovered to be engulfed in fire.
