BATANGAS CITY, Philippines—A 52-year-old businessman died when he was shot several times while he was sitting on his motorcycle and waiting for his wife who was closing their store in Barangay (village) Aguila, San Jose, Batangas, Saturday night, police said Sunday.

Police Officer 3 Nelson Flores, officer on case, said victim Noel Caguimbal, 52, was shot by two men on board a motorcycle at about 8 p.m. Saturday.
