A fire on Thursday in San Pedro destroyed the upper flat of a concrete building. About six-30 yesterday evening Police and Fire officials on the island received a distress call of a fire in the San Pedrito Area of San Pedro Town. According to neighbors they noticed smoke coming out of the upper floor of a two story building. They quickly organized a brigade and began fighting the fire. The house is the property of Diana and Fernando Cuellar of a San Pedrito Area address. Love News understands that at the time of the fire, there was no adult at home. First to arrive on the scene were members of the San Pedro Police Department, who happened to be in the area at the time of the fire. They, along with neighbors, brought the fire under control until the Fire Department arrived. When Fire Officials arrived on the scene they noticed that the fire was already under control. Fire officials fully extinguished the fire shortly after and no one was injured. The fire partially damaged the upper floor of the building and its content. The estimated cost of the damaged is unknown at this time and officials are yet to indicate whether the house was insured or not.
