One dead over LED headlight argument

**noitimed** · February 16th, 2016 08:51 AM

I heard this over a radio station this morning. Apparently after the argument the two agreed to a gun duel. They went home and come back to the agreed meeting place and shot each other. Pathetic.

news link from inquirer:

The police said that Belen stopped his vehicle and confronted Cristobal, complaining about the glare coming from his motorcycle’s headlight.

The two got into an argument, resulting in both of them going to their homes and returning to the scene with their firearms.

Belen fired first, hitting Cristobal in the feet, apparently to teach him a lesson, according to Bustamante.

However, Cristobal, a professional shooter, retaliated by shooting him thrice in the chest. He then went to the Police Community Precinct Station 6 and gave himself up.

Both are college graduates; One is a Lawyer, the other one is an Engineer. Their respective EQ left them when they need it most. Between going home, getting their guns and shooting each other, what were they thinking?

Utas ang isang abogado nang pagbabarilin ng isang electrical engineer na naka*duwelo nito matapos magtalo ukol sa nakakasilaw na headlight ng motorsiklo ng suspek, kahapon ng mada-ling-araw sa Caloocan City.

Agad na nasawi dahil sa iba’t ibang tama ng bala ng kalibre .45 baril ang biktimang si Nelson Belen, ng Block 1 Lot 5 Cardion Street, Senate Village 1, Brgy. 173, ng naturang lungsod.

Nagtamo naman ng tama ng bala sa paa ang suspek na si Andy Cristobal, 43, isang Overseas Filpino Worker (OFW), at nakaratay ngayon sa Philippine Orthopedic Hospital sa Quezon City.

Sa ulat ng pulisya, minamaneho ng biktima ang kanyang Mitsubishi Pajero sa may Senate Avenue pauwi ng bahay dakong alas- 12:15 ng madaling-araw nang masilaw siya sa LED headlight ng kasalubong na motorsiklo na minamaneho ni Cristobal at angkas na si Joseph Ochona.

Kinompronta ng abogado ang suspek na nauwi sa mainitang pagtatalo. Umalis sa lugar ang dalawa at pareho ring bumalik na kapwa armado na ng baril.

I wouldn't expect anything good from confronting a person who has no sense of courtesy (judging from his glaring LED lights).

I also don't go by the saying "parang walang pinag aralan" as it implies that educated people are supposed to act better. The way a person acts is more about character, upbringing and family background. It makes me wonder how these 2 people were raised by their parents to be so violent

Just this morning (~5AM) may nakasalubong ako na motorsiklo na naka-LED bar at ang lakas ng glare. I just put my HIDs to high and he turned off his LED bar leaving his stock halogen headlights on. I then turned my HL to low and we both went our own way.

WTF is wrong with these guys. Mga professionals pa naman. Baka fan ng wild wild west type of palabas or movies.

Walang pinipili ang road rage talaga. Educated or not. Self control ang true test.
Mejo OT: knowing na willingly sila nag duel, may laban ba yung namatayan sa korte?

Paging Juan Martinez. What's your take on this? They both talked about a duel. Went back to the same spot. Both were shot. Can the survivor claim self defense? He did surrender afterall.

kaya nagpauna yung prof. shooter alam nya may laban siya depende sa abugado.

Dueling is actually a crime. If it results in one getting killed, the other participant may be put in prison from a minimum of 12 years to a maximum of 20 years. Bilibid yan. There's no defense.

The engineer would probably be better off not admitting there was a duel so he could claim self defense.

Still a pretty stupid idea. What if the other guy didn't miss?

The Lawyer took the first shot/s, right?

And the Engineer was hit on his foot/leg?

However, supposedly, he has his gun ready,- and this is a complication.... He could probably spin a story here...
