Truck driver gets throat slit

A 43-year-old truck driver was killed by a man he had an altercation with Thursday night at the Manila International Container Port access road near its Parola, Tondo gate.

P/Ssg. John Paul Rojo of the Manila Police District homicide section said that the victim's throat was slit by another man at about 9:30 p.m. The driver was a resident of Caloocan City.

A truck helper described the suspect as between 5'4" to 5"6," muscular and bald-headed. The suspect blocked the truck driven by the victim who then alighted and engaged the former in a fistfight.

The victim was declared dead on arrival at the Gat Andres Bonifacio Memorial Medical Center. His remains were brought to the Cruz Funeral Homes.
