In Manila, a man passed away after a big firecracker blew up. According to the Philippine National Police, the firecracker exploded like a bomb, killing the victim named Ronald Vericio, 45 years old living in Buenos Aires Street located in Manila. 

Based on the statement of the witnesses, the victim was too drunk when he decided to lit up the firecracker, 'Goodbye Philippines' then hugged it as it exploded. 

“Sinindihan nya tapos niyakap nya yung Goodbye Philippines,” the witnesses said. 

It was also the same statement given by his live-in partner named Kristina Serrano. It was past 12 midnight when Ronald lit up the firecracker.
