A San Juan family, whose house was destroyed by fire yesterday, has joined the growing list of persons blaming faulty and leaking gas tanks for their loss.
Recounting how the blaze started yesterday, one of the distraught homeowners recalled filling a kettle and placing it atop the stove before turning on the gas around 6 am, as she was accustomed doing.
Standing in the front yard as she stared tearfully at the still smouldering structure around 8 am, she said, “There was no odour at all, no scent to say there was gas leaking or anything. No hissing sound, no nothing at all.”
