Authorities identified the victim as Mayo Junel Santos, an employee of Meralco, who was left bloodied inside his vehicle.
Another witness recorded the aftermath, showing Santos already wounded.
“May dalawang putok na magkasunod tapos 'yung ugong ng sasakyan na humarurot. Mabilis lang,” said witness Carlos Tobese.
