SAN MIGUEL, Bulacan -- Three passengers were shot dead by robbers who held up an Ifugao-bound bus along the national highway in Barangay (village) Balite here on Friday morning.

Superintendent Manaranay Lopez, police chief here, said one of the four suspects boarded the Victory Liner bus when it reached Barangay Sta. Rita, near the North Luzon Expressway, in Plaridel town. The three other suspects boarded the bus in Barangay Poblacion, also in Plaridel.

Lopez said the suspects announced the holdup when the bus, carrying 29 passengers, was cruising the national highway in Barangay Balite here at about 12:45 a.m.

He said they were still investigating why the suspects, who were armed with .45 cal. pistols, shot and killed passengers Ramil Caagusan, Beljohn Bonje and Sigfried Eheng.

Lopez said they have no reports yet about the amount of cash and valuables taken by the suspects from the passengers of the bus, which came from Quezon City.

Reports from the Central Luzon police office in Pampanga said Isabel Monje, another passenger, was wounded in the incident.

After the suspects alighted, driver Arnel Sañez drove the bus to Gapan City in Nueva Ecija to report the robbery to local police.

baka nanaman pag nahuli yang mga walanghiya na yan, dahilan nanaman nila kahirapan nanaman,tignan ninyo pinatay nila ng walang kalabanlaban na pasahero.

dapat talaga maparusahan yang mga yan,dahil maling mali ang ginawa nila dun sa talong pasahero.

Sigh, when I saw the title of this thread, I was hoping it's the robbers who got killed. Not the passengers.
IMO, these robbers should no longer be considered human and should be eradicated ASAP.
