Authorities are now waiting for the families of the victims to decide whether or not they will file a complaint against the rider.

Meanwhile, police are preparing several charges to file against the rider, who has not yet made any statement.

A multicab in the Philippines is a small utility vehicle commonly used for public transportation and light cargo delivery.

It is usually a compact, four-wheeled vehicle that can carry around 8 to 12 passengers, depending on its size and design.

Most multicabs are imported from Japan as surplus vehicles and are reassembled locally. They often have an open or semi-enclosed rear area with side-facing benches for passengers.

Multicabs are popular in both rural and urban areas because they are affordable, fuel-efficient, and able to navigate narrow roads.

They serve as an essential mode of transport in many communities across the country.

In a previous report by KAMI, a family of three was mercilessly shot and killed inside their store in Barangay Mallorca, San Leonardo, Nueva Ecija. Caught by CCTV, three men entered their store, closed the roll-up door, and shot the entire family to death. Before fleeing, one of the suspects even grabbed a bag and a mobile phone from the victim. In a report by Gary De Leon of TV 5's 'Frontline Pilipinas,' the family started getting threats after lending P1-M to one of the residents of their barangay; allegedly using the money for business.

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.
