According to some reports, that part of the ground that was a drier before has a 200-square-meter area was made as garbage dump of charcoal's ashes from a coconut.

So that it wont bring any more accidents and danger to the residents on the area, a fire truck decided to splash a drum of water but after a minute that ground dry again and it still produces fire.

According to Melvin Sebua, a geologist of MGB 12-DENR, the store temperature was from the waste charcoal. And there's nothing strange about the fire on the ground.

"Due to extreme temperature yung mataas na yun, na-induce yung temperature niya possible na nag increase" said Melvin Sebua
