Two others – John Paul Remorin, 18, and a 15-year-old boy – were rushed to the Iloilo Doctor’s Hospital for treatment of stab and gunshot wounds, respectively.

Investigation showed Igbante’s group clashed with Remorin’s and the minor’s companions in Barangay San Rafel at around 11:30 p.m., said Chief Inspector Leah Rose Peña, Mandurriao police station chief.
