A tricycle driver who stopped for traffic was shot dead by an unidentified assailant on a motorcycle while plying the streets of Tondo, Manila early morning on Sunday.

Identified as Rolly Marquez, the victim was on a trip when he stopped due to traffic along the corner of Rajah Matanda Street past 1 a.m. on Sunday when he was shot in the head twice by a gunman who also stopped beside the tricycle.

The suspect fled the scene, but Manila Police District Station 2 Commander Police Lieutenent Colonel Jorge Meneses III said the motorcycle was found parked at the corner of Recto Street and Carmen Street.

The victim’s wife Maribel Marquez is now calling on the gunman to come forward, as she seeks justice for what happened to her husband.
