A fire that posed a serious threat to life, originating from a 20-lb Massy Gas bottle around 11 am on Christmas Day, has left Tuschen resident Annalisa Boodwah deeply traumatized.
In a conversation with SN yesterday, the mother recounted that just moments before, representatives from Massy Gas had conducted an investigation. Up to press time, Massy Gas had not released a statement in response to this incident.
According to Boodwah, the Massy Gas officials informed her that the fire was caused by her usage of a faulty regulator; however, she said, “They explained to me about the top that I had on it and advised me on what I should purchase instead. So, I asked why they don’t educate the public on this; they should inform people. Then the man, later identified as ‘Ryan,’ responded, ‘people are looking for cheap options.’ If individuals were aware that this could endanger their lives, I don’t think they’d be using a regulator that is already causing issues!”.
