Initial report showed alias “Ram,” a rooster gaffer, and his live-in partner Princess, 23, were heard arguing at their house when suddenly, the suspect strangled the woman, prompting her to run outside the house.
The suspect then turned his ire on the two-year-old boy by beating the child.
When the woman returned home, she saw the boy lying unconscious on the floor and when she tried to pick him up, the suspect stabbed them hitting the boy’s belly.
The woman then screamed for help and neighbors rushed them to the Diosdado P. Macapagal Memorial Hospital in Guagua, Pampanga, where the boy was declared dead upon arrival.
During the operation, apprehending officers also arrested an alias ”Ronald,” who hid the suspect at his house. He will be charged with obstruction of justice.
