Authorities on Friday reported that another cadet of the Philippine Military Academy (PMA) died within the institution’s premises in Baguio City.
Initial reports said that the victim – identified as Mario Telan Jr., a 4th class cadet — appeared to have drowned in the campus swimming pool.
Investigations revealed that upper-class cadets searched for the victim at 1:20 p.m. and proceeded to the PMA’s Jurado Hall, where they found the cadet’s belongings in the comfort room of the swimming pool.
After an hour-long search, the cadet was found at the bottom of the swimming pool at 2:44 p.m. He was rushed to Fort del Pilar Station Hospital but was declared dead on arrival.
Authorities are still investigating the incident, which comes nearly two months after the fatal hazing of cadet Darwin Dormitorio on 18 September.
