A laborer was shot dead by still unidentified gunmen while his one-year-old son was injured during a midday shooting in Pikit, North Cotabato on Tuesday, police said.
“A manhunt is underway against several persons of interest who used a motorbike to escape,” according to Lt. Colonel Bernard Tayong, North Cotabato police spokesperson.
Tayong, citing the report from Pikit municipal police office, identified the victim as Fortunato Nadela Jr. of Barangay Takepan, Pikit.
Nadela was resting in a hammock at his home around 12:30 p.m. when the gunmen barged inside and without provocation, shot him.
He sustained multiple gunshot wounds in various parts of the body and died on the spot.
“His son who was playing nearby was hit by a stray bullet in his shoulder but is now out of danger,” Tayong said.
The Pikit police office is still determining the motive and identities of the attackers.
