– A huge fire devastated 60 families in Barangay 177, Malibay, Pasay City

– According to a report by Bea Pinlac in ’24 Oras’ of GMA 7, the Bureau of Fire Protection reported a total of 35 affected families from the incident

– A man named Carlo Vegas lost his wife, 7-year-old kid, sibling, and his sibling’s child who was 14 years old

– According to him, his loved ones didn’t make it out of their burning house; in fact, he jumped off to the river to save his life

He admitted he couldn’t do anything to save them and just expressed how much he loved his family.

Meanwhile, two other individuals were injured.

Most of the affected families didn’t manage to save any of their personal belongings.

“Parang higante na ‘yung apoy. Naku, nakaka… Ang hirap pala talaga ng ganiyan, bigla-bigla” said Susan Pinca, one of the residents.

According to the BFP, the fire reached the third-alarm and lasted for about 3 hours.

They had a hard time extinguishing the fire because of the narrow ways leading inside the burning houses.

“Unang una, masisikip at ‘yung mga fire truck natin ay naglalakihan. At may iba rin tayong kababayan na nagsira pa ng blinker ng fire truck para lang maagaw ‘yung ating linya,” said SFO1 Rezmond Germino.

Majority of the house were also made of light materials that’s why the fire spred quickly. The estimated amount of damaged property reached 1.2 million pesos, according to reports.

Meanwhile, the BFP are still investigating what caused the fire.
