The suspect, who sustained gunshot wounds in the body, was rushed to Kalayaan Medical Hospital in Kawit, Cavite by DEU operatives but ws pronounced dead on arrival by Dr. Sebastian, attending physician.
A Scene of the Crime Operatives (SOCO) team confiscated two fired cartridge cases, one caliber .38 revolver without serial number with one fired cartridge case and three live ammunition in its chamber, seven heat-sealed transparent plastic sachets of suspected shabu and the marked money.
The body of the suspect was not autopsied due to refusal of the family.
