A fisherman was killed Wednesday morning while dynamite fishing in Barangay Molocaboc, Sagay City, Negros Occidental.
Police identified the fatality as 47-year-old Francisco Jimenez Jagonos, a resident of the said barangay.
Based on statements provided by Jagonos’ daughter Quennie Jimenez, her father left to go fishing around 11:00 a.m.
However, that afternoon, Jagonos was found floating off the coast of the barangay by fellow fishermen, with blast wounds across his body.
Jagonos was rushed to the Corazon Locsin Montelibano Memorial Regional Hospital (CLMMRH) in Bacolod City, but later died while receiving treatment./DGB, WDJ
