Update 7: The Aftermath
Very sad for everyone at Europa! It was a great store with nice folks working there!
Sad….this adds to the number of persons already out of jobs. It’s a loss not only to the owners of the businesses but, Grenada as a whole. Thanks to all the firefighters, SGU and MBA for their assistance in containing what could have been even more devastating.
Very sad indeed. Great loss for the business owners and employees
Really sorry to hear that. Stay strong and rise from the challenge
sorry to hear that, what was the cause of the fire. I trust that no got hurt.
