A man was killed and another was wounded in separate shootings in Malabon and Caloocan on Friday.

A shot in the head killed Guelermo Ynopia Jr., 23, at around 5:30 a.m.

He was walking out of the Malabon fish port carrying a bag of bangus or milkfish when an unidentifi­ed gunman shot him, police said.

Ynopia was called a “bakaw,” short for “batang magnanakaw” or “young thief,” police said.

Meanwhile, Roberto Andaya, 41, was shot thrice, allegedly by Ryan Enganio, in a food store along St. Francis Street in Sheltervil­le Subdivisio­n in Caloocan City at around 12:30 a.m.

According to initial police reports, Enganio, also a customer, was irritated by the noise Andaya and his drinking buddy were making in the store.

He pulled out a pistol and shot Andaya thrice, police said. Investigat­ors found three fired cartridges from an unknown pistol in the store.
