Laborer stabbed by nephew in alleged revenge – police

A laborer was injured after he was stabbed multiple times by his nephew in alleged revenge for the killing his father in Hacienda Caiñaman, Brgy. Balabag, La Carlota City, Negros Occidental, on Sunday, Dec. 15.

Alias “Ernie”, 51, was injured after he was stabbed by “Art”, while he was sleeping at their quarters, the police said.

Police investigation revealed that while the victim was sleeping, he felt pain in his stomach and when he woke up, the suspect was about to stab him again but he parried the attack using his hands.

When the victim sat up, the victim stabbed him again in the back and fled, the police said.

The victim was rushed to the Don Salvador Benedicto Memorial District Hospital in La Carlota by the camp keeper.

A co-worker disclosed that in 2011 the victim allegedly killed the father of the suspect, the police said.

The suspect probably planned to kill his uncle since he made sure that all of their fellow workers were asleep when he stabbed him and had already packed his belongings, the police said.

The victim is now in a stable condition while the suspect is at large.*
