SAN PABLO, Isabela –– Two passengers of an improvised tricycle died when the vehicle crashed down a road on Monday night at Limbauan village, wounding the driver and five others.
Driver Rondy Paguigan, a 24-year-old construction worker, miscalculated his descent, causing the vehicle to roll over, pinning some of the passengers at 6:20 p.m.
Killed in the accident were Marivic Teppang and Lourdes Natividad.
Paguigan was hurt along with Romelia Caruna, Jessie Lazaro, Perla Arugay, Reynalyn Mariano, and student Edison Manguilin.
They were brought to the Milagros District Hospital, but Caruna, Lazaro, and Arugay were transferred to the Cagayan Valley Medical Center because they had the most serious injuries.
