A massive fire destroyed a shopping center on Leopold Takawira street and caused millions of dollars in damage to several businesses. People who saw what happened say the blaze started because of electrical problems and a gas blast. The trouble came from careless handling at a Chinese warehouse right next to the shopping mall. Firefighters from Harare arrived much later than they should have. Many people decided to steal food and other items from the burned wreckage instead of helping.

The shopping complex fire has left business owners counting huge losses as flames ripped through their stores. Witnesses blame poor electrical work and gas safety at the nearby warehouse for starting the disaster. The Chinese warehouse workers apparently did not follow proper safety rules before the explosion happened. Local fire crews took a long time to reach the scene and start fighting the flames. Crowds gathered around the damaged buildings and began taking groceries and merchandise from the rubble.
