MANILA (Mindanao Examiner / 02 Jun) – About two dozen people were killed and wounded before sunrise on Saturday after a man ran amuck and hacked his neighbors in the central Philippine province of Samar, police said.
Police said the man was apparently under the influence of liquor or possibly drugs when he went into a murderous rampage on a village in Calbayog City.
Armed with a bolo – a long heavy knife with a single edge – the man attacked everyone on his path and killing ten people and wounding at least 14 others before surrendering.
Police said among his victims were relatives and children, including a pregnant woman who was hacked dead inside her house.
The motives of the attack were unknown and the man has not spoken yet about what he did, police said. (Mindanao Examiner)
