A 27-year-old woman died while her live-in partner sustained injuries after the motorcycle they were riding slipped and was run over by a pickup truck early morning on Tuesday, June 9, along Araneta Street near the Flyover in Barangay Singcang, Bacolod City.

The fatality was identified as Tricia Ann Ovas. Her partner, 28-year-old Mckevin Absen from Barangay Pahanocoy, was the motorcycle’s driver and survived with injuries, Bacolod K5 Station reported.

According to police investigation, the couple was riding their Aerox motorcycle during heavy rain when the vehicle suddenly skidded.

The slippery road caused them to lose control, and Ovas, who was riding at the back, was thrown approximately 55 feet across the road.

Tragically, an approaching black pickup truck passed by and accidentally ran over Ovas. She died on the spot due to the severe injuries she sustained.

The driver of the pickup truck fled the scene. Authorities are now urging the individual to come forward.

“The family of the victim is appealing to the driver of the pickup truck to surrender and cooperate with the police,” investigators said.

Police are continuing their investigation and are calling for any witnesses to help identify the pickup truck involved.

This incident marks another tragic reminder of how quickly lives can be lost in road accidents, especially under poor weather conditions and without adequate protective gear.

In another viral local report, a 51-year-old public school teacher in Las Piñas City was stabbed multiple times by her own husband. According to the report of EJ Gomez in 'Unang Balita,' the 38-year-old suspect committed the crime inside the school's faculty room. Police authorities said the school has a security guard, but, being a familiar face in the school, the suspect managed to easily get in and out of the school. The suspect said he was there to talk to his wife and settle their misunderstanding, but unfortunately, it led to a big arguement.
