Tweet MANILA, Philippines – A man was shot dead as a result of a traffic altercation in Quezon City on Sunday.

The victim, 48-year-old Nestor Barrientos, died after he was shot in the chest by an unidentified man in Barangay Payatas-B, Quezon City.

Barrientos was declared dead on arrival at Far Eastern University (FEU) Hospital.

The victim’s companion, Marvin Escorial, meanwhile, sustained injuries.

According to Augustis Cusay, driver of the two victims, they were aboard a Nissan Sentra when they figured in a traffic altercation with the driver of a Kia Pregio.

Cusay said he blocked the driver’s path, and Escorial and and Barrientos got off the vehicle to confront the driver.

The driver, however, immediately pulled out a gun and began firing at the two victims, killing Barrientos.

Authorities have yet to determine the identity of the suspect. - dzMM

Sorry mods, I can't seem to find the quotation button. Still feeling my way around the forum's new look.

yup, got what they deserve. never ever block some ones car especially at night and exit your vehicle to "confront" the other driver of the car you blocked. sa dami ng carnap ngayon, if some one does that to me i'd do the same thing the other driver did unahan ko na kesa maunahan ako. kung hinayaan na lang nila di sana buhay pa siya.

also hinarang at bumaba para "maki pag usap" sa other driver, sinong tanga maniniwala sainyo.

+1. Given how blatant carnappers are, I will not stop and get out of my vehicle to "exchange pleasantries" when my vehicle gets blocked, even more so at night and on a lonely road. Anyone who blocks my vehicle will be taken down.

Let's look closely at what happened. There was a traffic altercation, one car blocks another, and three men emerge to confront the occupant of the blocked car. If you are the single occupant and you see three hostile men emerge out of the car that blocked you, and approach your car to confront you, what would you feel?

My first thoughts would be self preservation, and I would run them over or take them down.

The driver of the victims blocked the Pregio.
You just don't do that.

talagang mahirap na maging matapang ngayon......

[cme46]

siguro kung ako yun, i think same thing lang ang gagawin ko kung may baril ako.. lalo na palagi ko kasama misis ko.. pero wala akong baril kaya abante na lang ng mabilis...

its kinda weird lang, ikaw na nga humarang, ikaw pa etong malakas ang loob na lumabas at magconfront. hanep talga...

magandang lesson para saken eto... thanks for the thread!

[coiter]

agree, sasagasaan ko yung mga mokong na yun pag hinarangan at binabaan din ako ng wala akong kasalanan.

pero di rin natin alam buong kwento. baka naman nang hit and run ang van kaya may reason sila para habulin, harangan at babaan ang shooter.

[badsekktor]

ayan po lesson para sa matatapang.......

kahit anong tapang mo, kahit may baril ka pa, kapag naunahan ka eh yari ka!

They were not informed that the pregio driver has a gun...

ah.. ok.. kung ako sasagasaan ko din yan.. lalo na kung may kasama ako sa sasakyan...

[niky]

Absolutely stupid. You don't get out of your vehicle spoiling for a fight. Anyone with a hidden firearm is primed to fire first and ask questions later... it takes a certain amount of paranoia kasi to have a gun hidden in your glovebox... and given how scared most people are of carjackers...

This is what most of the forumers are always saying... "nakatagpo ng katapat."

This serves also as a reminder to me, because I have the tendency sometimes to go down and beat the other party black and blue.

For the suspect, it seems that for him, it is a clear and present danger to his life and limb that is why he opted to fire and just ask questions later on.

For the victims, lesson learned, the hard way.

[niky]

Yeah... lesson learned the hard way. Yun nga lang sana... they catch the gunman and make him learn his lesson. Preferably the hard way, up the behind, in jail.

The gunman should have surrendered after the incident if he felt his actions were justified... the question is, would the circumstances surrounding the incident be enough to mitigate his potential punishment?

This begs for more discussion: what do you do when, on a lonely road, your vehicle is blocked by another car and a couple of brawny men come out and approach you... with no weapons drawn visibly? You're alone, or at least you're the only adult male in your vehicle, let's say with the wife and kids.

Additionally, what if it were a lone female?

Nasa lugar naman kasi pagiging matapang. Pero number one rule is prevent an altercation, 2nd is never leave your vehicle for many safety reasons!

Kung kayang umatras para makatakas, yun sana. If not, ram the other car! Sa harap para may chance na masira front wheel at di na makahabol.

Buti malaki sasakyan ko at diesel, bagay pang-harabas! hehe

If it's a road rage thing, apologize if you know you're at fault. It deflates an angry man when his opponent is apologetic... No one likes to hit a non-aggressive opponent... Well... Mostly.

Otherwise, drive. Once they're out of the car, you can just drive around them. We've actually done this once or twice with some drunken idiots coming at us...

It is a bit scary though if they actually had guns. Even if the weapons were not drawn out initially, they could easily pull it out their backs and start firing. That's the scenario I am most wary about.
