According to Bohol Chronicles, fortunately no one was harmed during the incident, which occurred at Sitio Upper Kataingan in Barangay Mansasa, according to Fire Officer 3 Deninis Calonia of the local City Fire Station.

Calonia added that they received an alarm from the City Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office at about 5:20 PM and declared the fire extinguished at 5:42 PM.

“Duha fire truck ang among gipadagan ang isa gikan diri sa Central Fire Station kining diri sa Calceta and ang isa gikan sa old City Hall na substation,”

The owner of the house mostly made of light materials was identified as Consancia Fallar, aged 58.

Initial investigations of the fire showed that it might have occurred due to an electrical short-circuit as rainwater entered the residents during a rainfall before the incident.

“Matud sa iyang anak na kining suga, ang socket sa iyang kwarto kagabii nabasa daw ni sa uwan unya ila ning gi hocus pocus para dili ma agian sa tubig pero nag uwan naman pud kusog ganina, nausob na pud og kabasa maoy atong gi tan-aw na anggulo na posibleng hinungdan sa sunog,”

As per the report, officials cited that it began from the room of the owner’s daughter, where a drenched light bulb was found.

Fallar was alone in the house at that time when it broke out but she was able to get out swiftly.
