TACLOBAN CITY — A 32-year-old senior high school teacher died after he was stabbed by a 19-year-old student in Basey town, Samar on Monday, October 3, 2022.

Based on the investigation, Lauron, Lancanan, and other companions had a drinking spree at the boarding house of the victim at about 2 a.m.
“But in the course of their drinking spree, the two had a heated argument, which prompted the suspect to stab the victim in his chest using a knife,” Vargas said.
