Suspect in Shooting a Barangay Kagawad in Manila is Not a Soldier of PH Army
The suspect in the recent shooting killing of a barangay kagawad in Manila was discovered not to be a member of the Philippine Army.
The suspect in the death of a Barangay Kagawad in Malate, Manila, is not a member of the Philippine Army, according to the Manila Police District (MPD). The cops are currently examining whether it is a military reservist.
He was also unable to present his ID to officials despite providing his serial number. It is also claimed that he is not a soldier who is AWOL (absent without leave), as he initially stated in the media.
Earlier, the suspect, Rolly Algarne Y Ibanez, shot Jesus Carmona, a 47-year-old Parola, Tondo, Manila resident, inside a beer house. Surveillance caught the man with a gun hidden behind his back, based on the report.
He then shot the victim on the table. Carmona rose up and tried to leave, but Algarme shot him again, knocking him down. According to Lieutenant Colonel Leandro Guttierez of the Manila Police District – Ermita, three bullets struck the kagawad, one in hand, one in the thigh, and one in the back.
Donna Sabenencio, a waitress, was also injured and is now being treated at the hospital. A stray bullet hit the woman next to Carmona. The man fled in a car, but police captured him after he became stuck in traffic. Algarme had no choice but to give up.
The defendant is claimed to have become enraged when he approached Carmona because his car was trapped in front of the beer house and the victim told him there was nothing he could do. The suspect is currently being investigated by the prosecutor’s office in Manila.
