Two people were killed while a bystander was wounded in a gun duel in V-Sagun Municipality, Zamboanga del Sur last Wednesday night.

 

Killed were Benito Repales, 45, and Dondon Carbonilla, 38, both married.

A police report said that Repales and Carbonilla engaged in gun duel over personal dispute about 6:15 p.m.

Police said Repales and Carbonilla had engaged in a verbal tussle which ended in a fistfight.

Repales, who was knocked down, by Carbonilla went home and threatened to return with gun. Sensing Repales’ bad intention, Carbonilla also armed himself with a homemade .38 caliber revolver.

When Repales returned, a shootout broke out between wounding him and Carbonilla.

Repales sustained a gunshot wound on his chest while Carbonilla suffered multiple pellet wounds from a 12 gauge shotgun. Both were rushed to the hospital where they were declared dead on arrival.

A bystander whose name was not immediately available was wounded by stray bullet.
