The un­oc­cu­pied home of a Moru­ga man who died one month ago was de­stroyed by fire on Mon­day night.

The blaze oc­curred around 11 pm at Pe­nal Rock Road. A neigh­bour told po­lice there was a sud­den drop in volt­age, fol­lowed by crack­ling sounds be­fore the house caught fire. The struc­ture was a sin­gle-storey, two-bed­room ply­wood house that had been fit­ted with elec­tric­i­ty.

Po­lice said the fam­i­ly had re­moved all ap­pli­ances from the house af­ter the man’s death.

Fire of­fi­cers, led by Fire Sub­sta­tion Of­fi­cer Mod­este-La Fo­cade, ex­tin­guished the blaze. In­ves­ti­ga­tions are on­go­ing.
