A fire of unknown origin yesterday gutted the home of a local broadcaster and her family and a probe is underway to determine the cause.
Stabroek News gathered that the fire started sometime after 12.30 pm and while the fire service responded, the entire interior of the one-flat building was destroyed.
The house at Lot 6 Thorn’s Drive D’Urban Backlands, was occupied by Mia Ritchie 49, a broadcaster at the National Communications Network and two of her children. At the time of the fire no one was home.
