Singaporean manager shot dead in front of Parañaque shop staff

A Singaporean national managing a shop in Parañaque City died after he was shot in the face by two men in front of his workers on Wednesday.

A report submitted to Senior Supt. Ariel Andrade, the city’s chief of police, identified the victim as 36-year-old Stanlex Jang. Investigators have yet to determine why he was killed.

Chief Insp. Arnold Dugas, Parañaque police chief investigator, said that Jang was shot inside the office of Deltatronix Enterprises, a distributor of instrumentation products, on Doña Soledad Avenue in Barangay Don Bosco, at 12:12 p.m. on Wednesday. He was the general manager.

Dugas said that two men entered the shop and asked one of the seven employees present, “Where is your boss?”

When the employee pointed to the cubicle where Jang was working, the two men took out guns and went up to the victim. One of them then shot him in the face.

Dugas said the gunmen walked out of the shop casually afterward while Jang’s employees took him to the Parañaque District Hospital where he was declared dead on arrival.

According to Dugas, they were still trying to determine the motive for the killing because nothing seemed to have been taken from the shop.

“We can’t establish any motive yet. We are still trying to determine how everything happened,” he told the Inquirer.

Andrade said that a special investigation team had been formed to look into Jang’s killing composed of the deputy police chief for operations, the chief investigator, the chief of the special operations unit and the case investigator.
