00:00A few days before Christmas, some residents in Pasig and Makati City were burned alive.
00:07Some of them lost all their belongings.
00:09EJ Gomez and Bam Alegre brought the news.
00:15The fire was this big and the smoke was thick
00:18when the fire broke out in Barangay Cancilawan, Makati City before 10 p.m.
00:22Immediately, the second alarm was raised
00:24to warn the residents not to get out of the 8 firetrucks.
00:27The residents were told to go to sleep when the fire started.
00:30Suddenly, the alarm went off.
00:31At that time, I was watching TV.
00:33My mother was already sleeping.
00:36I was watching TV.
00:38I said, I smell something burning.
00:42I looked at my phone so that there would be no smoke.
00:46Even our lights were off.
00:48I just saw in the light of the TV that there was smoke.
00:53When I opened the door, I saw that the fire was big.
00:57He was able to save his son, but he was not able to save his wife who was on the second floor.
01:01It's good that she was able to get out.
01:03I broke the window.
01:05I put an air conditioner in it.
01:07I kicked it at the same time.
01:10But the smoke was strong.
01:11I said, I don't want to die yet.
01:13The smoke was really strong.
01:15Then, I fell down.
01:17They were not able to save anything.
01:19What's important is that their whole family, especially for Christmas,
01:22was saved.
01:23In the initial investigation of the Bureau of Fire Protection,
01:25the house where the fire started was already on fire.
01:2711 families of affected people were rescued.
01:31No one was injured or injured in the incident.
01:33It became a threat for the firefighters.
01:35There was a short-circuit and a live wire that needed to be shut down
01:39while the fire was being extinguished.
01:41The DFP's investigation of the fire was continued
01:43as well as the importance of the fire.
01:45The affected residents are staying in the evacuation center of the barangay.
01:49The residents of a condominium in Barangay Ugong, Pasig City
01:54were burned to death at around 8 p.m.
01:56A unit in the fifth floor of the house was set on fire.
02:00According to the DFP,
02:01the residents of the affected unit immediately evacuated
02:04as well as the other residents of the so-called house.
02:07It became difficult to sit in the fire
02:09which was immediately raised to the second alarm.
02:1114 firetrucks responded to the fire.
02:14There should be more responders.
02:17The response will be faster when the fire is extinguished.
02:21It's located upstairs.
02:22The access to the upstairs is a bit far
02:26because it's on the fifth floor.
02:28We can only go through the exit.
02:31No one was able to return to the fire
02:33as it was completely red at around 10 p.m.
02:35A BFP personnel who was the first to respond to the fire
02:38suffered a minor injury due to the thick smoke.
02:41The fire was still being extinguished
02:43and the house is still on fire.
