A 41-YEAR-OLD man was killed while four others were wounded in a road accident where a van tried to overtake a multicab in barangay Libjo, Tabogon town, northern Cebu last Dec. 26.
Police identified the fatality as Loreto Armero of barangay Goyong, Borbon town, Cebu. Injured were Mar-in Mondero, 20, Geralda Mondero, 54, and two minors.
The victims were bound for Bogo City on a multicab driven by Inocentes Mondero. Police said a Fuzo Fighter van driven by Melvin Andilab, 42, tried to overtake the multicab.
