MANILA, Philippines - Two men were gunned down by two still unidentified men at a public market in Alabang, Muntinlupa City on Tuesday night.

The Muntinlupa police initially identified the fatalities as George Acero and Romeo Dacles.

Police said the victims were standing at the market near Montillano Street at about 6:30 p.m. when the two suspects, aboard a motorcycle, suddenly appeared.

Without warning, the suspects opened fire at Acero and Dacles with pistols of unknown calibers, hitting them in various parts of the body.

Police said the two victims died while being treated at the Ospital ng Muntinlupa. According to police, one of the suspects was wearing a full-face helmet while the other was wearing a cap.

Investigators are now looking for possible closed circuit television camera (CCTV) footage of the shooting that could help identify the gunmen.

Police are also determining the possible motives for the shooting.
