Angela cried for justice and ask the police to help her.

According to an initial police report, Jang got 50 stab wounds, mostly in her chest.

Earlier reports indicated that Jang went out driving her car on Tuesday to take some passengers to Gil Puyat, Makati from Calamba, Laguna.

She temporarily worked as a "transporter" to earn money after the COVID-19 lockdowns forced her to go jobless.

According to her mother, Jang dreamed of having a car and she bought one as her gift to herself for her birthday last February.

Since she was out of work, she used her car to transport passengers while the threat of the pandemic forced the government to restrict public transportation.

According to the police, an investigation is ongoing for the motive and the identities of the suspects, saying they already have some "persons of interest" for the brutal murder. —LBG, GMA News
