A devastating overnight fire has completely destroyed a residential property and commercial building complex on Jacquelineweg, with the blaze erupting at approximately 3:33 AM and rapidly escalating into an uncontrollable inferno.
Emergency services received the initial alert at 3:33 AM, with first responders arriving to find the structures fully engulfed in intense flames. Despite the immediate deployment of firefighting resources, the combined efforts proved insufficient to salvage any of the buildings.
The commercial complex housed multiple businesses including a clothing store, butcher shop, and ice factory within its premises. All structures were completely consumed by the fire along with their entire contents and inventory.
The property owner, who resided on the premises with his family, reported hearing a loud explosion originating from the clothing store section immediately before the fire broke out. According to his account, the initial blaze began in this area before spreading with tremendous speed to adjacent buildings.
While the exact cause remains undetermined pending official investigation, authorities confirmed the buildings were connected to the EBS power grid and carried appropriate fire insurance coverage.
Both police and fire department investigators have launched a comprehensive investigation to determine the precise origin and circumstances surrounding the catastrophic fire incident.
