00:00In January, more than a hundred houses were set on fire in Metro Manila, according to the Bureau of Fire Protection.
00:06Like in Barangay 48, Barrio MenĂș, Tondo, Manila, where the celebration of the fiesta was postponed because of the fire, two houses were set on fire.
00:14Let's hear from Bea Pinla.
00:18On the same day of the fiesta of Santo Niño de Tondo, a thick smoke covered and the house caught fire in Barangay 48, Barrio MenĂș, Tondo, Manila.
00:30The residents poured their own water to help put out the fire.
00:36The barangay staff also helped to save the man trapped in the third floor of the burning house.
00:44He was the only family affected by the fire that lasted more than half an hour before it was completely put out at 5 p.m. according to the authorities.
00:53A senior citizen was injured.
00:55We thought it was okay because the senior citizen that we took out had a back injury.
01:02We took him to the ambulance.
01:06The 58-year-old man and his 43-year-old nephew were also killed.
01:12My father went up again because my cousin was still there.
01:15They didn't go down. I love my father very much. I will not let my mother and my brother down.
01:22It hurts a lot. I didn't expect that to happen.
01:27It hurts, of course. I don't want to go back. I don't want to go back. I'm sorry, I don't know if I can go back.
01:40The fire was so intense that it started in the second floor of the house.
01:45The authorities and their neighbors also helped the injured.
01:50We were able to take care of the nine families.
01:54We are thankful that our neighbors were able to sleep temporarily.
