Over the weekend, Charlito Tojod, a security guard of M&S Security Services, and his colleague, Mary Ann David, were both at the North Parking Area of SM Mall of Asia in Pasay City.
SPO4 Allan Valdez and SPO3 Joel Landicho of the Pasay Police Station Investigation Detective Management Branch detailed what happened between the two guards.
“David, who was supposed to relieve Tojod, got angry when the suspect blew his whistle, a signal she should take over,” reports Jeffrey C. Tiangco on Journal Online.
While handing over the .38 caliber service firearm to the David, Tojod supposedly joked, “Paliguan kita ng bala, eh (I’ll shower you with bullets).”
At this, David retorted, “Barilin kita diyan, eh (I’m going to shoot you).” Tojod responded by putting the gun on the table and daring the suspect to shoot, saying: ‘Eh, di sige barilin mo ako (Well, go ahead and shoot me).”
David then grabbed the gun, shot Tojod and then fled.
Tojod is now undergoing treatment, while David is on the run.
