MEMBER of the barangay police was shot dead in Barangay Tawan-tawan, Baguio district last Sunday morning, just a few hours after the Commission on Elections (Comelec) gun ban was put in effect. Baguio Police Station identified the victim as Marito G. Arroyo, 61, resident of Purok Bayanihan in Baran-

gay Tawan-tawan. Police said Arroyo was collecting coconut water in his farm in nearby Purok Panaghiusa when he was shot by three unidentified men at around 7:10 a.m. on January 10. Witnesses who heard the gunshots rushed to the victim’s farm and found Arroyo lying on the ground. According to the police

report, the witnesses saw the suspects, whom they described as young adults, running towards a forested area. Scene of the Crime Operatives (SOCO) said the victim suffered gunshot wounds in his back. In an interview yesterday, Davao City Police Office (DCPO) spokesperson Chief Inspector Milgrace C. Driz said investigators are

looking at personal grudge as motive for the killing because Arroyo had conflict with some people in their area. “Kani man gung biktima, katong bata-bata pa ni siya daghan pud siya’g na engkwentro na mga tao diha sa ilang area (When he was still young, Arroyo had frequent conflicts with people in the area),” she said.
