At least 11 people were killed after a fire broke out early Friday in a four-level commercial building in Manila City in the Philippine capital.
People screamed as flames leapt out of upper-floor windows of the five-storey mixed use building in Manila's Binondo district, a witness said.
“I was about to open the store when I heard very loud screams of people then I saw this very huge fire from that top part of the building," Susan Sago, 55, a salesgirl at a pastry shop on the ground floor, told a news agency.
