00:54 Ms. Melly was not saved from the fire because of the speed of the fire.
00:58 It's hard but I'm enduring it.
01:02 Thank God I was saved.
01:05 I would have been saved if my dog hadn't been left by its owner.
01:12 Nohelya was not saved either.
01:15 She is very thankful that her dog, Chan Chan, was saved.
01:20 We brought her back.
01:24 She was hiding in the rocks.
01:27 Ani jumped out of the window of their house to be saved.

01:39 It's good that 5 men jumped out.
01:43 I'm really thankful to the person who jumped out.
01:48 I don't know what will happen to me if I don't have a dog.
01:52 I just had an operation.
01:54 The fire broke out and the windshield of the fire truck was destroyed
01:57 by a wet fire rescue volunteer after a resident hit it with a rock.
02:03 He thought we were not doing anything.
02:05 He hit it with a rock because he was angry.

02:16 The family was affected by the fire,
02:18 which was equivalent to 1,800 individuals.
02:21 The BFP said that the fire started in Building 29.
02:26 Our area is closed.
02:28 Only our bumpers can enter.
02:30 But the problem is that people are also going out.
02:33 Not everyone can enter.
02:34 The water is poor and weak, so it took a long time.
02:37 Two fire volunteers were partially injured.
02:40 The initial cost of the windshield was 6.5 million pesos.
