A huge fire destroyed a bond at Good Hope, East Coast Demerara yesterday afternoon and damaged two nearby businesses.
When Stabroek News arrived at the scene an eyewitness, who wished to remain anonymous, related that the fire started at approximately 13:00 hours. Smoke was first observed coming from the centre of the bond that is said to be owned by White Boy Auto Spares. The eyewitness said that several calls were made to the Guyana Fire Service (GFS) but by the time they arrived on the scene, the fire had grown significantly.
