MANILA, Philippines - A fire broke out at the Apolonio Rafael Elementary School in Mapulang Lupa, Valenzuela City yesterday morning.

The blaze started at around 2 a.m., destroying school chairs and other fixtures at the second floor of the three-story building until it was put out three hours later. Investigators estimated the damage at P15,000.

Fire Officer 2 Johnny Gamboa said some students used one of the rooms last Saturday and may have left one of the electric fans plugged in, causing it to overheat and start a fire.
