Security guard killed after spat with car owners
A security guard was killed while another guard was wounded after they were stabbed in what could have been reprisal after a flareup with car owners in a private subdivision in barangay Candulawan, Talisay City.
Alejandro Masillones, 38, was declared dead at the Talisay District Hospital. Another guard, Joel Pareja, 42, is recuperating in a Cebu City hospital.
The security guards from Nima Security Agency were assigned at the Vista Grande Heights.
SPO1 Mikie Espina said the slain guard had written down the names of the suspects in a page of a newspaper, after he anticipated trouble after their encounter a few days earlier.
Police said they are now looking for Harold Canama and Narciso Mabano.
The attack occurred a few days after one guard figured in an argument with two men who were told to drive slowly in the subdivision because of the loud noise caused by the car’s muffler.
Police said the two men threatened Masillones during the argument.
According to Masillones’ co-workers, the guard jotted down the names of Canama and Mabano and the plate number of the vehicle (GXJ-976) on a piece of paper so police would know who to run after if there was trouble later on.
Past 2:45 a.m. yesterday, Masillones was about to turn over his duty to Pareja when assailants arrived and stabbed Masillones in the neck and back. His shotgun with eight bullets was taken.
Parejas tried to intervene was was also stabbed in the face and body./CORRESPONDENT GABRIEL C. BONJOC
