The entire town was saddened this Friday morning to learn of the fire that burned several locales near the Mercado Municipal. The fire appeared to start around 4 AM in a tienda de chacharos with lots of plastic items but spread to at least 3 other nearby locales. Its thick smoke spread across the bay towards Playa Las Gatas and out to sea at first light this morning.


Any update on the results from the fire on Friday? I saw a photo. It didn't look too bad from the photo but the little I know about fires, it looks as though the building might need to be gutted.

Not sure what to add. The fire resulted in a total loss for the 3 or so businesses affected, including behind the local where the fire apparently started. I believe there are around 12 people now without a job or source of income. I doubt anyone had insurance. The cement walls of the building are all that's left.
