Fireman set ablaze
A Barataria fireman is now fighting for his life at the Port-of-Spain General Hospital after he was doused and set afire by his angry neighbour. According to reports, Francis Stanisclaus, 47, was clearing a piece of land near his West Street home in Barataria around 11 am, when a neighbour doused him with a liquid and set him on fire. Relatives quickly put out the blaze and rushed the ailing man to the hospital where he remains warded. Investigations revealed that Stanisclaus and his neighbour had an ongoing land dispute which police believe was the motive behind the attack. A 56-year-old suspect has been held and is assisting police with the investigation.
