Manila, Philippines - Two persons were shot dead outside a bar in Makati City yesterday morning.
Acting Makati police chief Superintendent Jaime Santos said vendor Teresita Bualsubo, 62, and Ricardo Morano, 17, were killed while Alvin Fernandez, 22, was wounded. All three victims were rushed to the Ospital ng Makati.
Santos said the victims were shot outside the Line Concept Resto Bar along Reposo street in Barangay Guadalupe Nuevo at about 4:30 a.m. by a certain “JR.”
According to Santos, Fernandez and Morano were seen having a heated argument with the suspect in the bar. After the argument, JR stepped out of the bar and reportedly waited for Fernandez and Morano to emerge.
Santos said that when JR saw Morano and Fernandez, he whipped out a .9mm pistol and opened fire, hitting the victims.
According to Santos, they found out JR’s true identity and police officers are tracking him down.
