CEBU, Philippines - A two-year-old boy was found dead floating in Butuanon River in sitio Calderohan in barangay Maguikay, Mandaue City Sunday afternoon.

The boy was identified as John Mark Nemenzo, who was found lifeless more than an hour after his family and relatives started to look for him.

Romeo Villanueva, eco-warden of barangay Maguikay and neighbor of the boy said that last Sunday afternoon, the boy and the boy’s mother went out to buy fried bananas and softdrink.

While the boy was eating, the mother left the boy to his 5-year-old sister’s care while she relieved herself in a comfort room.

When she came back, the boy was gone. 

The boy was declared dead at a hospital.  (FREEMAN)
