Army intel man shoots superior dead
BAYOMBONG, Nueva Vizcaya , Philippines – A military intelligence officer reportedly shot dead his superior officer inside their office in Cagayan allegedly in a fit of anger over the weekend.
Authorities identified the victim who succumbed to three bullets from a .45 caliber pistol as Master Sergeant Jimmy Quilang, 46, of Linao East village, Tuguegarao City.
Reports disclosed that Quilang’s alleged assailant, Staff Sergeant Erwin Aplascador, 36, shot him three times in the head last Saturday after he reportedly got piqued by his superior’s constantly berating him.
Both officers were assigned with the Armed Forces’ military intelligence group (MIG) in Tuguegarao City, Cagayan.
According to reports, the three bullets all exited at the back of the head of the victim causing his instant death.
Reports also indicated that few days before the incident, Quilang had allegedly manhandled the suspect and continually berated him until they crossed paths again last Saturday inside their office.
Tuguegarao City police director Superintendent Pedro Martirez said the suspect is now under their custody while charges are being readied against him.
