Authorities at the Fire Department continue to investigate an early morning fire which destroyed the upper flat of a Belize City house.
At around 1:25 a.m., officials were called to the residence at the corner of Lindo's Alley and Vernon Street.
The firefighters found the upper flat of this pink house, made mostly of wood completely ablaze. They got in operation, and were able to extinguish the flames very shortly, but it did major structural damage to that section of the structure.
The Fire Department continues to investigate the origins of this fire, which is proving a bit difficult because it was abandoned for about 2 years. It also had no electricity running to it, so it is leading investigators to believe it may have been a criminal act.
