MANILA, Philippines - One person was killed and another was wounded in another predawn shooting incident in Quezon City on Sunday.

Police identified the fatality as Michael Bersamin, 37 and his injured companion as Renato Calanao, who remains confined at the East Avenue Medical Center.

Witnesses said the gunman was wearing a cap, black and gray T-shirt, maong pants, 5' 8" in height, and medium built.

Police said that the victims and their friends were having a drinking session in Barangay Holy Spirit, when an unidentified man shot and them at close range. The incident happened at around 1 a.m.

Police said that according to witnesses, the gunmen just walked casually to a waiting motorcycle and escaped.

The shooting came after Quezon City policemen arrested one of the two suspects in the random killing of several people in a shooting spree last week.

During the random attacks, Rodelio dela Cruz, 34, was first to be shot. Cousins Gilmer Gabronino, 35, and Angelie Auguis, 35, were shot about 50 meters from the site where Dela Cruz was killed. Businesswoman Alodia Grace Go, 37, who had just gotten off a bus, was gunned down around 300 meters from the second victim. -- Iza Iglesias, trainee
