MANILA, Philippines - An 18-year-old man was shot dead in Malabon City at past midnight yesterday.
Raymond Batchicha was walking home in Barangay Tugatog shortly before 1 a.m. when three unidentified men approached him and shot him in the head, according to Inspector George Gubatan.
He said Batchicha, who came from the wake of a friend’s grandmother, sustained three gunshot wounds in the head.
Investigators have yet to determine the motive and the identities of the teenager’s killers. They found four .45 caliber cartridge cases, two bullets and a silver replica of a .38 caliber handgun.
