Notorious siblings killed in Cavite gunfight
TAGAYTAY CITY, Cavite – Two brothers accused of shooting dead two people in Naic town on Sunday were killed in an encounter with the authorities in Bgy Kaybagal Central , this city.
Acting city police chief Lt. Col. Noel Calapitia said slain were suspects Denmark Delara Consumo and Ariel Delara Consumo, both residents of Bgy. Halang, Naic, Cavite.
