A mother and her three children are now homeless after a fire of unknown origin on Sunday morning destroyed their Betsy Ground, East Canje, Berbice home.
Reports are that no one was at home at the time of the fire which engulfed the 22 feet by 20 feet house.
This publication was told that at about 08:30h Dian Gobin sent her three children, ages three, five and seven to church and she left to repair her electric bike in the next village. However, before she reached the repair shop the 34-year-old woman received a phone call informing her of the fire.

The Guyana Fire Service responded with two water tanks with support from Rose Hall Estate Land Rover and extinguished the fire.
Gobin said that she and her children will have to stay in a small shop that is at the front of the premises.
Anyone desirous of assisting Gobin and her three kids can contract her on telephone number (592) 643-5756.
