Man killed after playing kara-krus

-
An unidentified man was stabbed dead outside an eatery in Tandang Sora, Quezon City before dawn yesterday.

The victim was found lying on his back in a pool of blood in front of Aling Nora’s eatery located at Tandang Sora, corner Mindanao Avenue, Quezon City at around 4 a.m.

Police Officer 1 Jojo Miranda, officer-on-case, said the victim died on the spot due to a stab wound in the back.

Witnesses saw the victim earlier playing "kara-krus" with a group of men in front of the eatery before the incident happened.

They said one of them pulled out a bladed weapon and stabbed the victim in the back. The suspects fled bringing the fatal weapon.

Miranda believes the stabbing was triggered by a heated argument after the suspects lose to the victim and refused to pay up.

Police recovered from the victim a coin purse containing old 25 centavo coins which he probably used in playing "kara-krus."

The cadaver of the victim was brought to the PNP Crime Laboratory for autopsy. – Pia Lee-Brago
