-

BALANGA CITY – A suspected drug pusher with a string of drug cases was shot dead while her three-year-old daughter was hit in the arm when  four-unidentified motorcycle armed men riding  in tandem shot them in front of their store in Barangay Santa Rosa, Pilar town, this province, Sunday.

Senior Superintendent Manuel Gaerlan, newly designated Bataan police director, identified the slain alleged drug pusher as Angeles Malibiran alias Angie, 43, reportedly a member of the Soyangco drug syndicate operating in the province and resident of Phase I Victory Village, Barangay Sta. Rosa, Pilar town.Her three-year-old daughter was wounded in the arm.

Gaerlan said the fatality suffered several gunshot wounds in different parts of the body that caused her instant death while her daughter was hit by a stray bullet.  

Police report showed the victim and her youngest daughter were taking their supper when the suspects riding in two Honda wave-motorcycles suddenly stopped in front of their store at about 7:30 p.m.

The suspects brandishing .45 caliber pistols when they alighted from the motorcycles immediately fired at the surprised victim and her daughter. The suspects fled to the nearby coastal village of Pilar town.

Police authorities are still looking for vengeance as the primary motive for the shooting of Malibiran and her daughter.

The victim reportedly tipped-off the police which resulted to the arrest of two suspected Muslim drug dealers from Quiapo, Manila in August 2006. – Raffy Viray
