PAGADIAN CITY – A 26-year old man grieving over the death of her mother was shot several times while attending to the woman’s funeral wake in Molave town in the southern Filipino province of Zamboanga del Sur, police said Tuesday.
Police said Joseph Tago – tired from attending to those who visited his mother’s wake – took a nap inside his vehicle, but was shot multiple times by two motorcycle gunmen who escaped after Sunday’s attack.
Crime investigators recovered 6 bullet casings fired from a .45-caliber pistol from the scene. An initial police report suggested the attack was motivated by a grudge. No other details were made available by the police on the identity of the shooters.
Tago was rushed Igano Community Hospital where he is being operated by doctors as police continue its investigating into the attack. No individual or group claimed responsibility for the shooting. (Mindanao Examiner)
