A 58-year-old man died after he was trapped inside a burning house in Cabatuan town in Iloilo province Tuesday night.
The fire started at 9 p.m., with firefighters needing an hour to put it out, radio dzBB reported Wednesday.
Killed was Federico Antillon, who was reportedly drunk and could not get out of the house, according to a separate report by GMA Iloilo.
His wife tried to rescue him but the fire spread quickly, according to dzBB.
An investigation showed the fire destroyed two houses in Barangay Rizal Ilawod in Cabatuan.
Carmen Villalobos, the owner of the other burned house, said she was praying when she felt something burning, and ran out of the house.
Tuesday night’s fire was the third in Cabatuan this month.
The Bureau of Fire Protection is still looking into what caused the fire.
