Tacloban village councilor, wife killed in fire

A village councilor and his wife were killed in a fire that destroyed their home and partially damaged two others in New Hope Village, Barangay 107, Sta. Elena, Tacloban City, on July 19. The fire was reported at 6:08 a.m. and extinguished by 6:30 a.m., with no other injuries reported.
