Housewife stabbed dead

-
A 52-year-old housewife was stabbed dead by her brother-in-law when an argument over a family-owned land turned bloody in Makati City over the weekend.

Police Officer 3 Juvenal Barbossa, case investigator, identified the victim as Teresita Laurente, resident of 103-A Aguho st. Barangay Cembo, Makati City. She succumbed to seven stab wounds all over the upper part of her body, inflicted with an ice pick.

The suspect, identified as Ramon Laurente, jobless, and resident of the same address, is now being hunted by the police.

Investigation showed the incident occurred at around 7 p.m. Saturday night in the Laurentes’ residence while the victim, suspect and a number of relatives were discussing a piece of property in the province owned by the family.

In the course of their discussion, a heated argument arose and the victim hurled harsh words against the suspect. Apparently losing his temper over the tongue lashing, Ramon reportedly took an ice pick and repeatedly stabbed his sister-in-law.

The suspect ran out of the house after the stabbing while Teresita was rushed to the Makati Medical Center. – Rainier Allan Ronda
