CEBU CITY, Philippines – A father and his son from Dalaguete town in southern Cebu got into a bloody fight over a passenger last Tuesday, July 12, 2022, the police confirmed.

The incident happened in Sitio Guiwanon, Barangay Poblacion, Dalaguete at past 10 p.m. on Tuesday, July 12, 2022, according to Police Major Gilfred Baroman, the chief of police in Dalaguete.

Baroman identified the victim as 65-year-old Angelo Flores Ocampo. The suspect was his son, Cirilo Ocampo, 41.

Initial investigation revealed that the two were trisikad drivers in the town and were fighting over a passenger earlier that day.

Angelo was brought to the hospital for treatment.
