Masked men shoot two men in Talisay

-

A 30-year-old man was killed while his companion was shot in the right hand after two men fired at them yesterday in barangay San Roque, Talisay City.

Police said Elizardo Eglamo, resident of the said place, sustained a gunshot wound to the left side of his chest and was declared dead on arrival at the Talisay City District Hospital.

His neighbor, identified as Dindo Yballe, 34, was wounded in the right hand and was brought to the same hospital but was later transferred to Vicente Sotto Memorial Medical Center for further medication.

SPO1 Arturo Andales and PO2 Reynaldo Hoybia, who responded to the incident, said based on their initial investigation the victims were allegedly hanging out at the intersection of Rabaya and San Roque streets when two unidentified men on a motorcycle came.

Without saying a word, one of them disembarked from the vehicle and deliberately fired at the victims before hurriedly leaving on board the motorcycle.

Police are still conducting a follow-up investigation to identify the perpetrators and determine their motives.  — Niña Chrismae G. Sumacot and Brenda D. Batuto/WAB
