Acting PNP chief Lt. Gen. Jose Melencio Nartatez Jr. called the incident a warning about the deadly risks of illegal firecracker production.
He emphasized that such activities not only break the law but also endanger innocent lives.
The PNP has launched an investigation to identify those responsible for the factory.
