AN unemployed carpenter was shot down while drinking liquor alone by motorcycle riding assailants in sitio Kawayan, barangay Kamputhaw at Gorordo corner Archbishop Reyes Tuesday morning.

The 43-year-old victim identified as Edward Cassil was approached by the back rider who shot him at point blank range. Two empty shells from a .45 pistol and a slug were found in the area.

Police said they are looking into reports that a personal grudge was the motive behind Cassil’s death. Cassil’s girlfriend Shanon Añora, of Mabolo recalled Cassil telling her he had an argument with someone last week.

Añora said Cassil did not identify the person he had an argument with. Cassil was a native of Bohol province who stayed in sitio Kawayan, barangay Kamputhaw.
