An explosion and ensuing fire was reported at 9:15 a.m. at the Chemphil compound along Elesco Road in Barangay (village) Kalawaan, said the city’s Bureau of Fire.
Authorities identified the injured as Roberto Alonso and Rodrigo Mendoza, both employees of CAWC Corp., the compound’s current occupant.
