It’s understood the tragedy struck Tuesday afternoon
while the deejay was at a studio session recording material for an upcoming
project. According to accounts from family members the blaze started in the
living-room area and quickly spread throughout the entire house. Amidst the
melee an alarm was raised.
Despite, the best efforts of the locals,
the occupants who were home at the time were forced to watch their investment
go up in flames as the fire raged but was eventually brought under control by
the fire department. Preliminary investigations revealed the blaze was caused
by a short from an electric fan, damages are estimated to be in the millions.
According to Waspp, “It’s
very disheartening to see all your years of hard work gone up in smoke, but
more importantly give thanks for life. I’m just happy no one died. My mother,
father and some other relatives were home at the time of the incident.”
A seemingly somber Waspp
continued, “This tragedy has set us (me and my family) back significantly,
we lost everything but once there is life there is hope, so we just gonna
keep pressing forward, no matter how long it takes.”
