PROPERTY worth $600 000 was on Sunday destroyed by fire at the police’s Drill Hall Licence Inspectorate Department.

Bulawayo City Council chief fire officer Lynos Phiri yesterday told Southern Eye that the fire was caused by someone who discarded an unknown flammable material which then set the whole storeroom ablaze.

“A storeroom built with corrugated zinc sheets measuring approximately 5×12 metres was burnt by a fire caused by carelessly discarding of a lit material,” Phiri said.
