And, keeping it in Orange Walk, a family on San Pablo Street in Orange Walk is left without a home and all their belongings after a fire that destroyed their house. The family claims that they are confused as to what may have started the fire and can only assume that it may be related to an electrical issue.

"Well, it's been quite a difficult experience. It's not something we can understand, because we were all innocent, the whole family. My oldest son arrived, and when he got there, one of the rooms was already quite engulfed in flames. We don't think it was anything electrical because we hadn't left anything plugged in; everything was unplugged, the lights were all off, and we think it must have been a short circuit; something must have been plugged in."
