The fire started just after 8 am at the Lot 33 Barrack Street, Kingston residence belonging to Dhanhiram Harcharan, 81, also known as Harry.
Harcharan, a gardener, lived alone and was not at home when the fire started. He said he was returning home from work when he saw fire trucks and persons gathering around.
