A fire last evening ravaged sections of the Corriverton Market in Region Six leaving vendors in dismay.
The Ministry of Home Affairs last night said that the fire was electrical in nature and erupted on the south eastern side of the market at approximately 6.45 pm, causing significant damage.
Upon receiving the distress call, the ministry said that Fire Tender No.101 from Corriverton and Fire Tender 110 from Rose Hall, led by Station Officer Minty and four other ranks, swiftly responded to the scene.
“Their prompt action ensured the fire was contained and extinguished.
