A 22-year old deranged man hacked to death a grade-4 pupil and injured three others in a bizarre hacking incident at Brgy. Union, Nabas, Aklan about 65 kms west of the capital town of Kalibo, on Wednesday afternoon, December 27, 2006.
Killed while coddling her 9-month old brother, Bernard Joseph, was 10 year-old Kimberly Espenida, resident of Brgy. Union, Nabas, Aklan. She was repeatedly hacked by the suspect identified as Gerald Orese.
Kimberly and his brother were brought to Malay Baptist Hospital, about 1 km from the Sitio Proper, Brgy Union, but she died a few minutes after arrival. She succumbed from severe head injuries.
Witnesses said the suspect suddenly entered the house of Mailyn Guce armed with bolo at around 2:30 p.m. while her neighbors were playing a binggo game in Sitio Proper. Without provocation, Orese hacked 37-year old Maribeth Salibio injuring her hands and neck.
"The suspect has gone crazy hacking those bystanders on his way," witness Benedict Salibio said.
The suspect, later, faced the Espinida siblings outside the Salibio’s house. Orese fled away towards Sitio Laguna and hid inside the Bandiola’s house.
Elsie, the mother of Kimberly, immediately called for help from bystanders to bring her children to a nearby hospital in Brgy. Caticlan, Malay, Aklan, the jump-off point to the famous island of Boracay.
Later, responding elements from Malay Philippine National Police (PNP) collared and detained the suspect pending the filing of criminal charges against Orese. He was turn-over to the Nabas PNP operatives in Brgy. Poblacion, about 15 kms away.
Salibio was rushed to Dr. Rafael S. Tumbokon Memorial Hospital (DRSTMH) in the town of Kalibo for treatment. The baby Bernard Joseph was transferred to DRSTMH due to neck injuries while Guce is undergoing medical treatment at Malay Baptist Hospital.
Aklan governor Carlito S. Marquez readily assured the family of the victims of his support for their medical treatment at DRSTMH. /MP mailto:madyaas_pen@yahoo.com
