At least 120 families lost their homes after a fire hit a residential area in Makati City Thursday afternoon.
Traffic was snarled for hours at the Guadalupe district in Makati City while the fire raged, radio dzBB’s Nimfa Ravelo reported.
No one was initially reported injured in the fire, which the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority said reached Task Force Bravo as of 5:40 p.m.
Firefighters managed to put out the fire at 6:45 p.m., even as traffic began to ease at J.P. Rizal in Guadalupe Nuevo.
The report added the 120 affected families were from Barangays Cembo and Guadalupe Nuevo.
Arson investigators are still determining what caused the fire. — VC, GMA News
