00:13Bama!
00:14Let's go!
00:16The cries and shouts of some residents
00:18echoed in Iloilo City in the middle of a blazing fire.
00:22In the burnt-down duplex house, two families are living there,
00:25but only one was lucky to be saved.
00:28In the investigation, the teacher and his wife,
00:30as well as their 7-year-old daughter were killed after being trapped in their house.
00:35We were trapped in our burnt-down house.
00:38Some of the windows were broken.
00:42They were okay.
00:43According to the investigation by BFP Iloilo City,
00:46the fire started on the second floor of the house.
00:49The reason for the fire could also be a broken power line.
00:52Since the house was built in the 1960s,
00:55the electrical lines were broken.
00:59The area was also damaged.
01:03The damage was more than P270,000.
01:07The victim's wife has been teaching for 10 years
01:10at Iloilo City National High School,
01:12so it was not easy for them to accept their fate.
01:17It was a great loss for the school.
01:23My husband and I were in a tandem.
01:26We were in a group of visual arts students.
01:31I didn't know what to do because we lost them.
01:37Another compound in Paranaque City was also burned down.
01:40Rumez Ponde will not get out of the fire truck.
01:43It's a compound.
01:44The house is quite old.
01:50The house is made of light materials.
01:54That's why it's easy for the fire to spread.
01:56According to the Bureau of Fire Protection,
01:58eight houses were burned by the fire.
02:00Ten to fifteen families were affected.
02:03No residents were injured.
02:05Six dogs were taken care of by the fire department.
02:07My husband was the only one left.
02:09It's a good thing he got out of the fire.
02:11He wouldn't have been able to walk there.
02:13Six of my dogs were taken care of.
02:15They were all killed.
02:16The investigation continues on the cause of the fire.
02:20Forty houses were burned in Cebu City.
02:23The fire spread quickly because the fire was made of light materials.
02:26It was also hard for the fire to spread because of the narrow road.
02:30The cost of the house in Ariarian is more than a million pesos.
