ORION, Bataan — Three men died, while two others were hurt, when their vehicle collided with an oil tanker and a trailer truck along Roman Highway on Tuesday afternoon (Nov. 15).

Jerome Pangilinan, 42; Emerson Pangilinan, 30; and Andy Luna, 30, died while being treated at the Bataan General Hospital in Balanga City. Two other passengers, John Kennedy Raymundo and Lord Jeric Gonzales, survived the crash.

The car driven by Jerome was turning towards Barangay (village) Bilolo when an oil tanker rammed into the vehicle, after its driver lost control of his brakes. The car was again struck by a trailer truck which was traveling on the opposite lane of the road.

The passengers were on their way home after processing a clearance application at the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) office in Olongapo City, police said.  SFM
