He said Jordan and Joseph Yu had planned the shooting.Chief Insp. George Ylanan, chief Criminal Investigation and Detective Management Branch (CIDMB) said they invited witnesses to identify him.
The worsening gang violence in barangay Tejero, where the recent killings happened, has prompted residents to call on barangay officials to address the gang war.
Residents of Tejero, where the wake for the two Bloods Gang members is being held, now fear for their security and are afraid they would be caught in the cross fire.
Yesterday, gang members transferred the wake of Veloso and the girl to another area for fear the Crips gang would strike again. A resident said Crips members had vowed to kill three more Bloods Gang members.
The resident expressed dismay on the inaction of barangay officials in addressing the street wars in their area. The resident said Jesselou Cadungog should speak with barangay Carreta captain Eduardo Lauron to discuss the concerns of the warring gangs from their two neighboring barangays.Bloods Gang members are from Tejero while Crips members are from Carreta.
“Kada gabii, nag sige gyud mi ug roving aning mga lugar nga dunay identified nga sakop sa gang. Ang amo. Tungod kay minor man gud ni sila kadaghanan, igo ra gyud mi sa pagbadlung kay maglisud man mi ug dakop tungod sa Juvenile Justice law,” said Cadungog. He added that “nagbawus-bawus nalang na sila.”As this developed, the three suspects in the killing a 14-year-old altar boy last Sunday were formally charged yesterday before the Regional Trial Court (RTC).Joypher Tatoy, 22; Marvin Abella Sanchez, 25; and Gary (not his real name) a minor will be tried for robbery with homicide charges, a non-bailable offense.RTC Judge Soliver Peras of branch 10 yesterday signed the commitment order of the three suspects who were brought to the Cebu City Jail yesterday afternoon.Sanchez and another companion Jason Villarama, 18, were also charged with attempted murder and frustrated murder for trying to kill a jeepney driver and a conductor last Saturday.
