Fire partially destroys home in Belize City

Another fire in the North Front Street area, this time on Sunday August twenty-ninth, has destroyed the upper floor of one family’s home. According to Nurse Gaynel Collins she was at home around ten a.m. that morning when she heard a sound like breaking glass coming from upstairs. When she investigated, she found the house burning. The Fire Department was immediately called and around eleven that morning the fire was brought under control. The house was insured. Fire Chief Henry Baizar says the Fire Department is still investigating the cause of the fire. Last week a fire on North Front Street destroyed three houses.
