Aussie head of Clark firm shot dead

ANGELES CITY – A 55-year-old Australian investor at the Clark Freeport was shot dead by two motorcycle-riding men along the Friendship Highway here last Wednesday afternoon.

Senior Superintendent Pierre Bucsit, city police chief, said the victim, Ivan Brown, president of the Outback Five Star firm which manufactures ice boxes and coolers at Clark, was apparently driving home to Timog Park Subdivision when he was attacked.

Brown, who was married to a Filipina, sustained six bullet wounds from a caliber .45 pistol.

Bucsit said the assassins were wearing short pants and riding in tandem on a red Honda Wave motorcycle.

Brown was driving his car a few kilometers away from Clark’s perimeter gate in Barangay Anonas when his attackers overtook him and fired. - Ding Cervantes, Ric Sapnu
