House burns down while owners out for the evening.
The fire department is still investigating the cause of the fire that burnt down a house in Florida.
The incident which took place on Tuesday night involved ER24, City Power and all neighbouring Community Policing Forums.
The fire was spotted by a Maraisburg and De La Rey Community Policing Forum (M&D cpf) patroller while driving through the neighbourhood and immediately called for help.

M&D Patrollers evacuated the tenants avoiding any injuries or loss of lives.
“The house is a total loss however we would like to thank everyone who was involved and came to assist. It was a great team effort work and a job well done. Also, our own M&D cpf team who responded and assisted with the same constant dedication they always portray,” said the cpf’s Sumaya Collins.
