Painter stabbed during drunken argument with co-worker in Quezon City

A painter was stabbed during a drunken argument with his co-worker in Cubao, Quezon City.

According to a ‘State of the Nation’ report by Emil Sumangil on Friday, CCTV footage of the incident showed the suspect arguing with the victim while holding a weapon.

A woman was shown trying to take the weapon away and attempting to stop the fight by pushing the suspect away from the victim and towards a parked jeep.

The victim, however, followed the suspect until the end of the parking lot. The suspect then stabbed him.

This began a chase between the suspect and the victim, who can be seen bleeding.

The victim was eventually rushed to the hospital but was later pronounced dead due to loss of blood.
