An elderly man was found dead beside a creek in Barangay Dominga, Calinan District, Davao City.
The lifeless body of the 65-year-old man was found by residents beside the creek. He was identified positively by his wife who said he had been missing since Saturday, June 14, 2025.
According to the man’s wife, her husband left their home in Barangay Lacson to go to their farm in Barangay Lamaman where he planned to make charcoal.
He never returned.
Police investigation revealed that a witness saw the elderly man crossing the creek on a makeshift bamboo raft.
Authorities believe he may have fallen into the water and drowned due to the strong current at that time.
The man has been laid to rest.
