gold buyer Harold Gerstel’s shop burns

gold buyer Harold Gerstel’s shop burns ; Just a few months after one of his employees was accused of ordering the killing of a business rival, a Toronto cash-for-gold dealer saw his shop burn under suspicious circumstances on Monday.

Police suspect someone tossed an “incendiary device” – such as a Molotov cocktail – through the front of Harold Gerstel’s shop, which specializes in purchasing used gold, diamonds and other jewellery.

Firefighters were called to Harold the Jewellery Buyer, on Bathurst Street near Glencairn Avenue, shortly after 2:26 a.m. Within 15 minutes, they had brought it under control and managed to contain the flames to the small store itself. Neighbouring businesses did not appear to be damaged.

Investigators from the Ontario Fire Marshal’s office have begun probing the exact cause of the blaze, while police opened an arson investigation and canvassed the area, a strip of street-front businesses several blocks long.
