MANILA, Philippines – A motorcycle driver died on the spot after being ran over by a cement mixer truck in Quezon City before dawn Thursday, police said.

Police Officer 3 Renato Sunga identified the victim as Ronald Rosales Casas, 21, of Payatas, Quezon City who died after sustaining a severe head injury.
