Several people speculate that the fire may have been set, although so far the authorities have not issued any official note on the causes of the incident.

"You can't imagine what the people who live close to that place went through, including me with a small child. I was just asking God that my house wouldn't burn down and my son would be safe. I wouldn't wish that on anyone, everyone. We regret the death of that poor boy, may he rest in peace," wrote Mailen Ray Heredia Aliaga.
