MANILA -- Anakpawis Representative Crispin Beltran died Tuesday at around 11:48 a.m. after suffering from a bad fall in his home in Barangay Muzon.
Doctors from the Far Eastern University hospital said Beltran sustained lacerations in the head and brain injuries, which resulted to his death.
Beltran, 75, was trying to fix a leak in their roof and fell off on his way down.
In a TV interview, Beltran's daughter Ofel said her father fell about 14 feet from the ground.
She said they first brought their father to the North Caloocan hospital where he was resuscitated there.
They later decided to transfer Beltran to the Far Eastern University hospital where he was declared dead due to brain injuries.
According to Ofel, her father suffered several cardiac arrests.
But doctors clarified that the cause of the lawmaker's death was not due to cardiac arrest instead because of brain injuries. (Sunnex)
