A 73-year-old man died after he was beaten with a GI pipe by his neighbor in Libertad, Misamis Oriental.

In a video footage, the suspect is seen beating the senior citizen even if residents were telling him to stop.

“Kining suspek, dako man siya lawas unya batan-on pa, 53-anyos, nailog niya ang G.I pipe nga gidala-dala ug gihapak pa kuno sa iyaha. Nakuha niya ang tubo ug maoy iyang gibunal sa nawong maoy hinungdan sa kamatayon sa biktima,” Libertad Municipal Police Station Chief, Captain Chance Ramirez, said.

The victim died when he was about to be transferred to a bigger hospital.

The suspect escaped after the incident but he surrendered after a few hours. Authorities recovered the pipe he used.

Investigators are looking into personal grudge as possible motive in the killing.

“Basin ma-elevate sa murder kay tungod sa blotter. Nagpa-blotter before ang biktima pero ang nag-initiate sa kagubot ang biktima,” Ramirez added.
