Grace Melanie L. Lacamiento - The Freeman

CEBU, Philippines- A 30-year-old man is in critical condition while a 13-year-old girl was also injured after they were shot by an unidentified gunman at Garfield corner Espelate Streets, Barangay Pahina San Nicolas, Cebu City yesterday dawn.

 Bernard Fernandez suffered a gunshot to the back of his head and two other gunshot wounds to his chest while Ann Nicole Pacaldo got injured after a bullet grazed in the upper side of her left arm.

 Police Officer 1 Joel Zamora of the Cebu City Police Office Homicide Section said that while Fernandez was about to get his order of a bowl of noodles from Pacaldo, the unidentified assailant appeared from behind. The gunman was accompanied by another unidentified man.

 The unidentified gunman reportedly pulled out a caliber .45 pistol and shot Fernandez. The bullet also grazed the upper left arm of Pacaldo who was busy preparing noodles at that time.

 The assailant immediately fled after the shooting incident while Fernandez and Pacaldo were rushed to Cebu City Medical Center by the residents in the area.

 Zamora said that they are eyeing revenge as motive behind the shooting of Fernandez.

 He said that they found out that Fernandez was a suspect in a shooting incident last December involving a certain “Negro.”

Zamora added that they are also looking at other possible angles for the shooting incident.  (FREEMAN)
