Updated: 2022-12-18
Ten individuals were confirmed dead in a fire that hit a residential area in Barangay Putatan in Muntinlupa City on Sunday morning, according to the Bureau of Fire Protection (BFP).
In a Super Radyo dzBB interview, City Fire Marshal Fire Superintendent Eugene Briones said that the casualties have increased to ten from the seven reported earlier.
“Actually, ‘yung nanay, nakayakap sa kanyang five-month old na bata… ‘Yung tatlo naman na malalaking lalaki, magkakasama sila doon sa isang side na malapit sa gilid na ng bahay. Siguro nag-attempt sila na makalabas, hindi magawa kasi may grills nga ang bahay,” he said.
(Actually, the mother was found hugging her five-month-old child…Three big guys were also found together on one side. Maybe they tried to get out, but couldn’t because the house had grills.)
“May isang matanda na sa CR namin natagpuan at nakasuksok ang ulo niya sa ilalim ng lababo. Siguro para maiwasan din ang usok dahil ‘yan naman talaga ang papatay sa atin,” he added.
