Teen, 4 others gunned down

Five persons, including a minor, were shot dead in Luzon on Wednesday.

Jansen Landingin, 16, a resident of Barangay Bonuan Gueset, Dagupan, was in a passenger jeepney (AVG-948) when he was shot in Barangay Malabago in Mangaldan town.

Landingin was pronounced dead on arrival at the Region 1 Medical Center.

Probers are looking into the possible link of the killing of Landingin with the death of two men in Dagupan on Tuesday. The bodies of Jeffrey Banaag, 33, and Jay-R Daoana were found along the road in Barangay Bonuan.

Domingo Mamaril, administrator of Barangay San Luis in Antipolo, and his wife Maribel were in their sport utility vehicle when they were waylaid in Barangay San Roque.

The couple suffered multiple gunshot wounds and died at the scene.

Police are eyeing a land dispute as the motive for the killing.

In Batangas, Nestor Abella and his wife were riding a motorcycle on their way home when unidentified men on another motorbike shot him in Barangay Calubcub II in San Juan town.
