• GILBERT P. BAYORAN

Two senior citizens were found dead in Manapla and Don Salvador Benedicto, Negros Occidental, on October 7, with one of the victims shot and killed by still unidentified gunman, according to the police.

The 61-year-old victim, a widower, was found dead at Purok Mahogany in Brgy. Bagong Silang, Don Salvador Benedicto, with a gunshot wound in the head.

Initial police investigation disclosed that the victim, whose identity has been withheld by the Don Salvador Benedicto police, was reportedly on his way home to Purok Udyong in the barangay, when he was attacked by the unidentified perpetrator.

On the other hand, the police ruled out a foul play on the death of an octogenarian at Lacson Street in Brgy. II, Manapla.

The body of the 86-year-old woman, whose identity also withheld by the police, was already in an advance state of decomposition when found inside her home.

According to her immediate family, the old woman was living alone, suffering from hypertension and vertigo.*
