MANILA, Philippines - Around 100 families were rendered homeless on Monday after fire gutted 60 homes in a residential area in Quezon City.

Initial reports said the blaze started around 7 a.m. inside the house of a certain Mildred Sanchez on Kapiligan Street, Barangay Dona Imelda.

Firefighters managed to put out the flames, reportedly caused by an unattended lit candle, at around 9 a.m.

Arson investigators said no one was hurt during the blaze, which destroyed around P500,000 worth of property.

Reports said that a resident, 53-year-old Carlito Ande, fainted after his blood pressure shot up.
