A fire of still unknown cause hit the Let\u2019s Go Saipan warehouse in Lower Base late Thursday night. No one was injured in the blaze that, according to the company, happened after operations had ended for the day.<\/p>\n
The Let\u2019s Go management assured that it\u2019s \u201cbusiness as usual\u201d as regular tours and operations resumed Saturday, although in a limited capacity as they take some time to continue cleanup. Let\u2019s Go is an extreme adventure tour company that offers all-terrain vehicle rides.<\/p>\n
Department of Fire and Emergency Medical Services spokesman Derek Gersonde said there was extensive damage inside and around the warehouse, including several ATVs.<\/p>\n
Gersonde said that arson investigators were at the scene and would do their investigation when the heat settles down. DFEMS will provide more updates.<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s Go Tour Co., in a statement posted on its website, stated that the fire was localized to one area and that damage was not that extensive.<\/p>\n
No employees or other personnel were present during the fire. The company\u2019s operations were suspended only last Friday for cleanup and safety examinations.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe would like to reassure our employees, customers, and partners that safety and security are always our top priority. We will continue to strive in delivering excellent service and provide memorable tours for all our customers,\u201d the management said.<\/p>\n
The management also thanked the community for their \u201cwell-wishes and show of support\u201d and to DFEMS and its commissioner Claudio K. Norita, Department of Public Safety, and the Commonwealth Utilities Corp. for \u201ctheir quick response.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are truly grateful for their professionalism and swiftness in containing and putting out the fire,\u201d the management said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
