2 female dentists killed in Benguet

-
La Trinidad, Benguet — A lone gunman killed two female dentists inside the apartment of one of them in this capital town last Monday, police said.

Police probers have ruled out robbery in the gunslaying of dentists Luzviminda Igualdo, 39, and Alice Alwas, 37, since nothing was missing from Igualdo’s apartment in Barangay Betag.

Police said the gunman, described as wearing a baseball cap, entered the apartment through the backdoor and shot the two women with a caliber .45 pistol while they were watching television in the living room.

Alwas was then visiting Igualdo, a sister of Inspector Marlo Igualdo who used to be with the La Trinidad police before he was transferred to Camp Crame.

The two dentists died on the spot. Police found seven empty shells in the crime scene. — Artemio Dumlao
