Authorities in Rodriguez, Rizal are investigating the discovery of a woman’s body found by the roadside with a fatal gunshot wound to the head. The victim, whose identity remains unknown, was spotted in a secluded section of Barangay San Isidro early Tuesday morning.

According to a report by Bea Pinlac on "Unang Balita" Friday, a tricycle driver was on his usual late-night route when he noticed the body lying near the road.

“Bumibiyahe siya nang magdamagan, nadaanan niya daw na may bangkay, ang sabi nga sa amin nakadapa. Noong mapuntahan namin, nakatihaya siya,” said Valentine Tripoli, the Police Security Officer of Barangay San Isidro.

Authorities quickly cordoned off the area as part of their initial response.

Tripoli added, “Isa lang po ang nakita naming sugat, may tama po siya. Nilabasan ng bala rito sa sentido. Noong tingnan ng SOCO, sa likod pala nanggaling ‘yung unang pasok ng bala, dito (sentido) siya lumabas.”

Investigators believe the woman’s body may have been dumped in the dark section of the road to conceal the crime.

The Rodriguez Police are now working to determine the victim’s identity and track down those involved.

Barangay officials have since tightened patrols in the area to prevent similar incidents and ensure the safety of residents.
