CEBU CITY, Philippines — An unattended candle was believed to have started the late afternoon fire on Saturday, September 25, in Barangay Sambag 1 in Cebu City that destroyed at least P4 million

Senior Fire Officer 1 Riza Julve of the Cebu City Fire Office said that they, however, had yet to verify if it was really an unattended candle that started the fire.

Julve, a fire investigator, said that they had yet to conduct an investigation and check on the unattended candle claim of Joshua Inso, the son of Allan Inso, who owns the two-story ancestral house, where the fire allegedly started. Joshua earlier told media in an interview that he believed the unattended candle allegedly left at the altar after a prayer vigil on the second floor of the house could have started the fire.Julve said the fire was reported at 5:09 p.m. and the firemen arrived in the area at 5:16 p.m.She also said that they had yet to finalize the number of people displaced by the fire.
