00:24Around 2 a.m. this morning, a fire broke out in Poroc Cinco.
00:28The Bureau of Fire Protection quickly issued the 5th alarm.
00:31Almost 60 firetrucks responded.
00:34Firefighters arrived one after another.
00:36Because Poroc Cinco is at the end of the residential area,
00:38firetrucks were placed at the compound of MI-City or Manila International Container Terminal
00:43to bring water to the area.
00:45A fireboat was also used in Manila Bay.
00:48Other residents helped in extinguishing the fire using buckets and an old refrigerator
00:53that was filled with water.
00:55They also placed a wall between the residential area and MI-City
00:59to protect the residents.
01:01At 4 a.m. on the 14th of the morning, there was a red fire.
01:04According to the Manila Fire District, 30 houses were burned.
01:0770 families were affected,
01:09which is equivalent to 270 individuals.
01:12One of the possible causes of the fire is overheating appliances.
01:16But the BFP will investigate this.
01:19Meanwhile, Marines, at this time,
01:21have already evacuated some of the residents who were burned in the residential area
01:25to find out if they can still be helped.
01:28Others are just continuing with their families
01:31while others went straight to the evacuation center.
