A minor who was supposedly accompanying a friend looking for a vulcanizing shop was killed when unidentified culprits shot him around 3PM June 22 at Purok 6, Brgy. Dagum, Calbayog City.
Police identified the victim as alias “Tinoy”, 17, single, jobless, and a resident of Calbayog City.
Initial investigation conducted by the local police disclosed that the victim along with his friend Benjamin Noroña were walking down the pathway in the said barangay inquiring for the nearest vulcanizing shop. The two accordingly were bringing with them a ‘traysikad’, a bicycle-driven sidecar, to vulcanize its flat tire. However, a gunshot was heard while they were walking and the victim suddenly fell into the ground bleeding. The ‘traysikad’ they were bringing fell into their backs.
Noroña was spared by the culprits whom nobody can describe considering the incident was abrupt and the gunshot forced the people around to drop for cover.
The local police are conducting a thorough investigation over the killing to identify the suspect and the motive.
