Drunk pa kills son
TUGUEGARAO CITY – Bothered by his conscience, a resident of Abulug, Cagayan gave himself up to authorities for shooting dead his own son while heavily drunk.
Police said Mario de Guzman, a resident of Barangay Santa Filomena, Abulug town, also surrendered the caliber .38 revolver he used in shooting his child, Angel, a Grade 4 student, in the shoulder.
De Guzman went into hiding for days until he turned himself in to barangay officials this week.
The incident came some three weeks after another father, Remegio Dacquigan, 52, of Pamplona town, beheaded his 12-year-old daughter.
Policemen fatally shot Dacquigan after he refused to give himself up and attacked them. He was said to be mentally ill. – Charlie Lagasca
