Summary
A fire tore through an orphanage in Enmore, forcing a dramatic evacuation where all 33 children escaped safely—but one child suffered shock, another injured a shoulder during the rush, and an EMT was also hurt. Emergency crews responded swiftly with three trucks and two ambulances, containing the blaze mostly to the boys’ dorm. The Prime Minister praised a quick-thinking attendant as a hero, while locals helped in the rescue. Children have been relocated to the Mahaica Children’s Home, and trauma counseling has begun. Authorities are launching a full investigation into the fire’s cause, scrutinizing safety inspections and preparedness. Political parties have rallied behind the response, commending first responders and caregivers, and urging public support.
