00:00 Meanwhile, the fire that struck two warehouses in Bulacan did not go out.
00:06 Joshua Garcia is now at the center of the news.
00:09 Two warehouses in Barangay Libtom, Maycawayang, Bulacan were set on fire at 9 p.m. last night.
00:19 According to the Bulacan Bureau of Fire Protection,
00:22 the fire rose to the fourth alarm earlier this morning at 1:27 a.m.
00:26 While declaring the fire under control earlier at 11.02 a.m.
00:30 According to Fire Superintendent Jeanette Hussayan, Bulacan BFP Provincial Fire Director,
00:34 "In the initial information, the warehouses contain things that are considered light materials.
00:39 So, it's easy to burn and hard to detect."
00:42 "Not really confirmed, but this is what we were told.
00:45 Both supplies, general merchandise, houseware, there are some plastics.
00:49 But the plastic is already whole.
00:51 So, this is what's making it a little bit longer.
00:54 I mean, in all, it's a stockhouse.
00:57 It's like a warehouse. There's no manufacturing involved."
01:01 Hussayan explained that the fire rose to the fourth alarm earlier this morning,
01:03 and that's why it was hard for them to enter the fire.
01:06 Because the walls and debris had already fallen,
01:09 she can now take precautions for the firefighters.
01:12 "There are challenges that my people are telling me.
01:15 Because it will not be penetrated to the point of going there.
01:19 Because there's a lot of debris that has fallen and is not safe for our people."
01:25 The fire was declared as a fire-out until 12.11 this afternoon.
01:28 No one was injured or lost in the incident.
01:31 Assessments are also ongoing on how much of the debris was left.
01:35 Authorities are also investigating what caused the so-called fire.
01:39 Joshua Garcia for the Bayan.
