A prominent hotelier in Cebu City was killed in an ambush Tuesday night, barely 24 hours after the failed attempt on his brother’s life.
Manuel Ting, owner of the Parklane Hotel in Cebu City, died from multiple gunshot wounds at the Chong Hua Hospital at 7:30 p.m., according to Chief Insp. George Ylanan of the Cebu City Police Office.
Ting was driving his silver-gray Mercedes Benz along F. Llamas Street in front of the new Gaisano Capital mall in Barangay Tisa, Cebu City and was slowing down to make a right turn at the San Jose Village road when he was shot several times by unknown assailants.
Nobody heard any gunshot being fired, not even a beat patrol policeman who was then in front of the mall, according to Ylanan.
Because Ting’s BMW was automatic, it still ran and bumped into an incoming Toyota Avanza vehicle that came from the Katipunan area and was about to enter F. Llamas Street.
