Initial findings indicated that the older brother had only stepped outside to buy something when the shooting happened. He was reportedly talking with his younger sibling when their neighbor allegedly attacked them.
The incident has prompted authorities to launch a search for the suspect, who remains at large. Police are working to locate him and establish the full circumstances that led to the deadly encounter.
The suspect's position as a barangay tanod, a community-level peacekeeping officer, adds significance to the case, as the allegations involve a person tasked with helping maintain peace and order in the neighborhood.
Authorities have yet to report an arrest in connection with the shooting based on the available information.
Meanwhile, the victims' family is seeking justice for the brothers, one of whom lost his life while the other sustained injuries.
The investigation is expected to establish further details about the confrontation, the circumstances of the shooting, and the suspect's whereabouts. The allegations against the barangay tanod have yet to be resolved through the legal process.
