00:00At one point of the translation, the road was flooded after it hit the side of the hill.
00:13It was also cut off from the road by some people so that they can get some money.
00:19Chino Gaston was live. Chino.
00:23Emil, the road of Jesus Nazareno is now in Belividviejo.
00:31And until now, there is still no sign that the number of devotees is decreasing here.
00:40It was past 1 in the afternoon when the road of Jesus Nazareno arrived,
00:44where the Fraternal and the Arlegistri led the way,
00:48while some took the narrow road to cross the road.
00:53There were people holding the knock of the road from the roof of the houses,
00:57or the devotees made a rope to tie it to the clear part of the cross of Jesus Nazareno.
01:06Maybe to the faces of those crossing the road,
01:09it was hard to bear the heat, thirst, and most of all, tiredness,
01:13because of the unceasing robberies of the thieves.
01:15But, we can also see the anger of those who were beaten by the thieves
01:20because of their kiss and holding on to the tip of the cross.
01:23There were also people who robbed the thieves so that they can get their share.
01:27It is hard now.
01:28Why?
01:29Because the thieves cut it off.
01:32And then, the flow of people is too aggressive.
01:36They don't give.
01:37I prayed with my family.
01:39They used a tank.
01:40Yes, they helped us directly.
01:43The rescue and medical team are returning to the victims of the robberies.
01:47There were residents who threw rocks, drank water,
01:50or poured water on the devotees in the middle of the bad weather.
01:55This is one of the most dangerous streets that the procession crossed today.
02:01And here also, many devotees are waiting,
02:03believing that they have a better chance of holding the tip of the cross
02:08or even being able to curse the procession.
02:11It took almost two hours for the procession to return
02:15where it suddenly stopped.
02:17It turned left when it hit a bench and a signpost.
02:22It also stopped for about two minutes before it was pushed and picked up by the devotees.
02:28According to the MPD, one of the two ropes of the procession was also cut
02:32because of the number of devotees who were pulling it.
02:34MPD Chief Police Brigadier General Thomas Ibai said that the procession is slower now.
02:40There are also reports that devotees are jumping from the roof to the procession.
02:51Emil, and because of the crowd of devotees holding the tip of the cross,
02:56according to the Manila Police District, two of its tips were already cut.
03:00Now, it is just being pushed by devotees to return to Gapo Church.
03:05Emil.
03:07Thank you very much, Chino Gaston.
