MANILA, Philippines – A three-year-old girl from Zamboanga del Norte became the first stray bullet victim for this year’s holiday season, the Philippine National Police (PNP) said yesterday.

Calsum Henio is fighting for her life at a hospital due to a bullet wound in the abdomen.

The incident occurred in the wake of an intensified campaign being implemented by the PNP against indiscriminate firing during the Christmas and New Year revelries.

Henio was playing in Barangay Sirawai Proper in Sirawai town when the incident occurred last Tuesday, police said.
