Around 17:00 hours, some people within the Neighbourhood saw smoke coming out from the said house and immediately rushed to check what was happening. They found that all the doors were locked and fire was seen inside the house. Concerned neighbours called Firebrigade officers who rushed and managed to put the fire off around 18:20 hours.
Value of properties destroyed is yet to be established.
