At least seven rooms of a three-story boarding house were damaged in an early morning fire yesterday in barangay San Nicolas, Cebu City.
The fire started in the ceiling of a room occupied by Gladys Macaraya.
Electrical misuse is being looked into as a possible cause of the fire which broke out at 6:40 a.m., said arson investigator Roylen Maratas.
Maratas said electrical rewiring was recommended since the building was already old.
The fire was contained at 7:02 a.m. Fire damage was pegged at P100,000.
