CEBU CITY, Philippines — Authorities are searching for a man in his 30s, who was reportedly missing, after a fire that hit Barangay Duljo Fatima in the early evening of January 5, Saturday.

Barangay Duljo-Fatima Councilman Gian Godofredo said that he was hoping that Christian Lopez, a resident of the barangay, was not trapped in the fire and was somewhere safe.

Godofredo, who is the chairman of the barangay’s social services and disaster committee, said that they were just waiting for the overhauling of the fire scene so that they could find out where and what really happened to Lopez./dbs
