The bomberos were forced to bring in water tanks from David but the wooden building was totally destroyed in two hours For decades the owners of the location had allowed tourists to enter and take photographs Investigations to determine the causes of the fire are underway. https://www.newsroompanama.com/news/firefighters-stymied-by-water-shortage-as-tourist-icon-burns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bud Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 On our way into town today we could see no evidence of fire damage from the street. I had planned to take a picture to post here, but there is nothing to show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's one of the first questions a Fire Marshall asks when fire consumes an unoccupied building. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
