00:04This is the news of Naba Malegre and EJ Gomez.
00:10Residents of Barangay 58, Tondo, Manila felt nervous and scared
00:15when Sumiklabang Sunog caught fire last night.
00:17There were also firecrackers when the fire broke out.
00:21It was very foggy here.
00:23You can see the light from here.
00:25We just got out of here.
00:27We were all shocked.
00:29Especially our friends and acquaintances.
00:33It's a pity.
00:34When I got out, I saw that the electricity was going out.
00:38We were just next door.
00:40It was the second time.
00:42But at first, we were only able to move our backs.
00:45But now, it's totally gone.
00:47The affected family has reached six people
00:50and almost none of their belongings survived.
00:52So none of your belongings survived?
00:54None, none.
00:55This is all I have.
00:57I don't have anything else.
00:58Some residents also helped the firefighters to put out the fire.
01:02My husband and his friends are also helping.
01:06Almost everyone is helping to put out the fire.
01:11It's difficult for the BFP to put out the fire.
01:14Most of the residents in the area are made of light materials
01:18so the fire spread quickly.
01:20Because the road was narrow,
01:23our trucks couldn't get through.
01:25So the water supply was cut off.
01:27More than 40 fire trucks responded to the fire
01:30that spread after more than three hours.
01:33None of them survived.
01:34Three fire volunteers were injured,
01:37including one who was shot by a gun during the fire.
01:42A fire broke out in a motorcycle factory
01:46in Barrio Visaya, Barangay Guadalupe, Viejo, Bacati City.
01:49It happened early in the morning.
01:52Less than eight fire trucks had to respond.
01:55Three motorcycles caught fire.
01:58Stay-in mechanic Rochel Mendoza was saved.
02:01Unfortunately, the incident happened quickly
02:03and none of his belongings survived, except for one motorcycle.
02:06He was also injured in the arm.
02:08I saw it was smoking.
02:10That's why I came back quickly.
02:12When I came back and opened the gate,
02:14there was no smoke anymore.
02:17The owner of the motorcycle factory
02:19was in danger of losing his job.
02:21His family celebrated Father's Day,
02:23so he was not at the motorcycle factory
02:25when the fire broke out.
02:26There was smoke.
02:28It came out.
02:29The roof came down.
02:30It was very strong.
02:31We were only here for a few minutes.
02:33The fire was very strong.
02:35The house was made of live materials.
02:37It was very strong.
02:38We didn't know what to do.
02:43In the second house,
02:45there were two bedrooms with bed spacers.
02:47According to the firefighters,
02:48no one was lost or burned.
02:50The fire was controlled at 2 a.m.
02:52and the fire was completely put out at 2.27 a.m.
02:56The Bureau of Fire Protection will continue the investigation.
