Man hangs self under bridge

CEBU - A man was found dead after he hung himself under a bridge in sitio Mahayag, barangay Subangdaku, Mandaue City early morning yesterday.

 William Epifania Cari-at, 41, a native of barangay Poblacion, Carcar City, and a promotion crew of an establishment in Talisay City, was found dead by his relatives around 4 a.m. yesterday under the Mahayag Bridge which is the boundary between Cebu City and Mandaue City.

Cari-at used a nylon cord to hang himself.

Mandaue City police homicide section chief, Insp. George Aniñon, said that based on the statement of his relatives, the victim was depressed because of his family’s financial problems and disappointed because he could not buy milk for his baby.

Meanwhile, a man who was believed to have suffered pancreatitis was also found dead inside his room last Sunday night in barangay Guizo, Mandaue City.

PO1 Michael Auman of the Mandaue City Police Office said the dead body of Henry Lorenzo 53, was discovered by his neighbor Jeffrey Flores who was about to ask him if he could borrow his shoes.

Flores knocked and waited but after getting no response, he let himself in and found the fatality dead on his bed.

Lorenzo’s body was brought to a funeral parlor for autopsy to determine if there was any foul play involved in his death. – Flor Z. Perolina/BRP(THE FREEMAN)
