Senior Superintendent Hernando Zafra, provincial police director, said the victim, Reynaldo Morales, was inside the tricycle parked on the highway’s shoulder, waiting for a passenger, when the incident happened at about 8:30 p.m.
Police said Villegas’ driver, Jonathan Gementiza, 54, tried to avoid hitting the carabao but instead sent the bishop’s Ford Lynx smashing into Morales’ tricycle. — Raffy Viray
