Man runs amuck after losing Facebook access


A 34-year-old reportedly went amuck in Agno, Pangasinan supposedly after he failed to check his Facebook account because he lost his mobile phone.

Said to have been armed with two bolos, the suspect allegedly hacked to death Laulita Naranja, 63; and Hermenio Cabais, 52.

The suspect and his victims are residents of Sitio Pandan, Barangay Gayusan in Agno, Pangasinan.

"Biglang sumulpot na may dalang dalawang itak . Pinasok niya yung matandang babae.... Pagkatapos, naglakad. May nadaanang matanda na nasa duyan. Iyon naman isinunod," said Chief Inspector Renato Gacad, chief of the Agno PNP.

The suspect is believed to be suffering from a mental illness.

"Basta ipa-file namin ang kaso.... Bahala na ang korte na mag-identify kung may tama nga sa ulo 'yung suspect," Gacad said.

The suspect even tried to kill himself and it took the police three hours to arrest him. Police failed to recover his weapons after he allegedly threw them to the sea.

He answered in the negative when he was asked if he knew that he killed two people.

Asked why he attacked them, the suspect said, "'Yung sa cellphone!" —NB, GMA News
