A taxi registered to Crown Cabs in Kitty, and bearing registration HB 6718, burst into flames a little before 16:00 hrs yesterday on Homestretch Avenue, Georgetown, in proximity to the National Cultural Centre.
The driver of the taxi, Simon Duggan, said that he had just dropped off two customers and was heading to Mandela Avenue when he noticed smoke emanating from the bonnet of the car.
“I stopped in a corner and was preparing to check where exactly the smoke was coming from. Just as I opened the door, the whole front flared up,” the driver said. He added that he only collected the car from the base on Wednesday.
Persons stood near the gate of the Cultural Centre to get a glimpse as fire fighters extinguished the fire. Other road users were seen driving very slowly to get a look as they passed the smoking vehicle.
Kaieteur News was told that the fire could have been because of “a faulty wire.”
