A lifeless body of a man was discovered in his home in Aguilar, Pangasinan, according to a report from Bombo Radyo Dagupan.
In an interview with PMaj. Mark Ryan Taminaya, Chief of Police of Aguilar PNP, it was confirmed that the incident was reported to their station at around 11 AM yesterday, prompting an immediate response.
Upon arrival, authorities found the victim lying on his back with a gun beside him.
Initial investigations and testimonies from the victim’s family and neighbors suggest that the man may have taken his own life or accidentally shot himself.
Despite this, his family decided not to have an autopsy conducted and expressed satisfaction with the initial findings.
However, police are continuing a thorough investigation to ensure that no details are overlooked in the incident.
The victim’s family was unsure where the gun came from, though it was noted that the firearm appeared to be old.
Meanwhile, due to continuous rainfall, authorities reminded residents to stay cautious, particularly when driving, and avoid speeding on wet roads.
PMaj. Taminaya assured the public that the police will continue to fulfill their duties to the best of their abilities.
