A 46-year-old man and his 12-year-old daughter were killed after they were thrown off a motorcycle and got run over by a wing van in Balamban town, midwest Cebu last Friday afternoon.
Police said the ill-fated motorcycle was driven by Danny Bolongaita.
Bolongaita lost control of the motorcycle after he hit a dog which suddenly crossed the road in barangay Cantood.
Bolongaita and his daughter Mary Joy were thrown off to the opposite lane and got run over by a truck driven by Chinese national Cong Hai Zhu, 38, said PO1 Alexander Camoro of the Balamban Police Station.
Mary Joy died while being treated at the Balamban District Hospital. Danny was taken to the Vicente Sotto Memorial Hospital in Cebu City where he later died.
Zhu, who resides in Carcar City, surrendered to the police after the incident.
He was released several hours later after reaching an amicable settlement with the victims’ family.
