LEGAZPI CITY – A peasant was shot dead after his three stab-attempts to a policeman in Mandaon town, Masbate on Saturday afternoon, a police official reported Monday.
The victim was only identified as a certain Levi of Sitio Batuan,Barangay Payao in Mandaon town, Masbate, who was then riding his motorcycle when the incident happened at around 2:30 p.m., said Chief Inspector Ayn Natuel, Bicol regional police spokesperson.
Natuel said that according to SPO4 Job Francisco, who killed Levi, he was on board his motorcycle, running at a moderate speed when the victim blocked his way and forced him to stop.
Without any provocation, Levi suddenly attempted to stab the suspect three times, but unfortunately missed it when Francisco managed to get away from his motor, Natuel added.
However, Levi furiously followed and tried to stab the suspect again, but for this time, Francisco defended himself by shooting the approaching attacker, using his .45 caliber pistol.
SPO4 Francisco immediately surrendered to the Masbate police after the incident. Johana Vi E. Gasga/Inquirer Southern Luzon.
