At least 15 people died in a fire at a house that was being used as a factory in the Metro Manila area, according to local authorities as reported by CNN Philippines.
Marcelo Ragundiaz, the head of the fire brigade in Barangay Tandang Sora district, said that a child of the homeowner, whose age was not mentioned, was one of the people who died in the fire in Quezon City. The homeowner said that at least three people, including himself, managed to get away.
Ragundiaz said that the place was being used as a place to print T-shirts. He said the fire probably began in the middle of the building, making it difficult for most people inside to get out.
CNN could not confirm the information about the incident because they couldn’t reach the Bureau of Fire Protection and the local authorities in Quezon City to get the details.
The government of Quezon City will check if a homeowner broke any rules about building and fire safety. They will also find out if the homeowner had permission to use their property for business purposes. CNN Philippines gave this information.
This happened a few days after 10 people got burns and cuts from a fire in a neighborhood in Quezon City, as reported by CNN Philippines.
