NEWS UPDATE: A violent confrontation in Barangay Tiringanan in Janiuay, Iloilo, left three men dead on Friday night after a stabbing spree ended in a fatal shooting.
PCol. Bayani Razalan, Director of the Iloilo Police Provincial Office (IPPO), confirmed the fatalities as 66-year-old Jimmy Enojo, 56-year-old tanod Francisco Calangit, and the alleged assailant, 32-year-old Raven “Doydoy” Lepalem.
According to police investigation, the incident began while Jimmy Enojo was sitting in the village. Lepalem reportedly approached and stabbed Enojo, prompting tanod Francisco Calangit to intervene. Lepalem, however, also attacked and stabbed Calangit.
The situation turned even more deadly when Enojo’s brother, 56-year-old Alejandro Enojo, arrived at the scene. Alejandro reportedly shot Lepalem upon seeing the situation. While all three men were rushed to a nearby hospital, they were ultimately pronounced dead on arrival.
Authorities have since arrested Alejandro Enojo, who is currently detained at the Janiuay Municipal Police Station.
