Victim Charlie Quinto, 32, a truck driver and a resident of 131 Magsaysay Ave., Doña Faustina Subd., Novaliches, sustained stab wounds in the body and was pronounced dead on arrival at the Bernardino Hospital.
The suspects, Roberto Romero and his son Roberto Jr., both next-door neighbors of the victim, escaped after the killing. The two were armed with bladed weapons.
Investigators said that Quinto and the suspects were having separate drinking sessions with friends inside their respective homes when the incident took place at about 7:45 p.m.
Quinto, apparently was drunk and he urinated in front of Romero’s home. This irked the suspects and they immediately confronted Quinto. Moments later, a heated argument ensued. At one point, father and son pulled out bladed weapons and stabbed the victim several times in different parts of the body. Quinto collapsed on the ground as the suspects fled the scene.
The victim was rushed to the hospital where he expired at about 9 p.m. Operatives of the Central Police District are now conducting follow-up operations to determine the suspect whereabouts. – Matthew Estabillo
