Personal grudge possible motive in Carcar shooting
POLICE yesterday said they are looking at a personal grudge as the motive in the shooting of a 16-year-old boy and two others in barangay Poblacion, Carcar City, south Cebu.
Three motorcycle-riding men shot dead teenager Bohol natives Reggie Pabroa and a certain Glenn during a roadside drinking session around 10:30 p.m. on Wednesday.
A friend of the victims, Juanito Saraga, 41, is recuperating in a Cebu City hospital from a gunshot injury.
Police said the victims, who bought second-hand damaged jewelry for a living, were in Carcar for business.
Carcar City Vice Mayor Patrick Barcenas ordered the police chief to step up check points and patrols and to strictly check of all motorcycle riders on the road to enforce a Carcar ordinance against wearing full-face helmets and face masks.
But the two motorcycle-riding assailants had no masks when they fired at the victims.
