Muntinlupa’s city
hall burns down |
|
By Jonathan M. Hicap Reporter
A fire that lasted for more than
four hours gutted the main building of the Muntinlupa City hall just
before noon Friday, destroying municipal documents, millions worth
of office equipment and paralyzing government operations.
Employees fled from their offices
when the flames started to engulf the building. Sources said the
fire started from shanties at the back of the city hall. The
shanties were built beside the wall that separates the city hall
from the residential area.
