00:0018 houses were burned in Barangay Tandang Sora in Quezon City, 5 were injured.
00:05This is the news brought to you by James Agustin.
00:13The residents of General Avenue in Barangay Tandang Sora, Quezon City, woke up to a blazing fire last night.
00:20The fire spread quickly to the adjacent houses made of light materials.
00:26The first alarm was set to the Bureau of Fire Protection.
00:29Romis Pondek was in their 18 fire trucks, as well as the fire volunteer groups.
00:34The flames spread to the area.
00:36Some firefighters had to go to the roof to bring water to the area.
00:41Residents who were affected fled to the adjacent chapel.
00:44Some of them were not able to save anything, like Helen's family.
00:48We heard a scream.
00:50I opened the window, and the fire was already big.
00:53It was right in front of our house.
00:55So I went downstairs.
00:57All of us went downstairs.
00:58Michelle's family was also affected.
01:01They were very thankful that their entire family was saved.
01:04Our houses were made of light materials, so it was very fast.
01:08And it was very dangerous.
01:10Almost all of our neighbors went inside.
01:15They were able to shortcut to the other houses.
01:18What's important is that our families are safe.
01:22Five residents were injured.
01:25They were immediately evacuated by the first rescue team.
01:2813-year-old woman was also injured in her knee while fleeing.
01:33A man was bitten by a dog in Binti.
01:36Because the residents of the barangay did not go down to the 18 houses that were burned,
01:40the entire number of affected families were informed.
01:44We will send a modular tent.
01:47If they do not go down here, they can bring the burned houses to our barangay.
01:52Of course, we will also provide relief to them.
01:56The BFP is also investigating the fire,
01:58including the overall importance of Pinsala.
02:00What is involved here is a two-story residential informal settler.
02:05The origin of our fire is the ground floor in the bedroom of the house.
02:10It took more than an hour before the fire was completely extinguished.
