Boy drowns in QC creek

The body of a six-year-old boy who fell into a creek in Quezon City was recovered on Wednesday at Tullahan river.

According to GMA News, the body of Ariceo Neprio was found by rescue workers. The boy was playing near San Paulo creek with some friends during the heavy downpour on Tuesday. Reports said the boy slipped and fell into the creek. Local rescuers had difficulty finding the boy because the water was murky.

Residents suggest putting a barrier in the creek since it often overflows during flood season.
