A man shoots dead a man who allegedly has an affair with his wife in Ilocos Sur. After the crime, the suspect fled with his wife.
In a report by Ivy Hernando on GMA Regional TV “Balitang Amianan” on Wednesday, two bullet wounds killed the 30-year-old victim identified as Michael Angelo Balaroso, of Zone 5, in Bantay, Ilocos Sur.
During the police investigation, it was said that the victim came to the rented house with his partner, who hid under the name “Karen.”
But the suspect, Ian Christian Carte, Karen’s husband, also suddenly arrived.
The victim and the suspect had a heated argument until Carte allegedly shot Balaroso.
After the crime, CCTV cameras saw the suspect riding a motorcycle with Karen.
Authorities arrested the suspects on their way to Magsingal town. The gun believed to have been used in the crime was confiscated from him.
According to Police Major Pol Areola, OIC of the Bantay Police Station, Carte also had a bullet wound in his hand that also came from the suspect’s gun, so he was taken to the hospital.
Carte refused to give a statement, but Karen admitted she had an affair with the victim.
The relatives of the victim, on the other hand, want justice for what happened to Balaroso.
