Canadian Citizen Killed In Surigao City

[Americano]

He said that he did 12-16 sets of 30:2's. He was still applying CPR when the paramedics came up to the scene and made him stop.

Did they have you stop because it was too late or because they didn't want you doing "Their" job?

Or maybe they didn't know what he was doing.

I think so little few hereactually know proper CPR that it frankly confused them, or when it was called in perhaps they reported that Harry was already sead. He said that when the 1st paramedic came up that they actually screamed at and scolded him and asked him what he was doing with that corpse? He said that they prononced him and that any further first aid stoped once they arrived.. I know that Mike said that it was quit an emotional shock to him, and that the event actually rattled him for a couple of days after.. I am glad that Harry had someone there trying to save him. The autopsy report still has not arrived yet, it is unclear what lab test were actually done, perhaps some of test results tool longer than expected. Welcome to "Filipino Time". As soon as I get my little monkey paw on a copy I will post it on the forum.

CPR on a gun shot victim ? I would think you would want the heart to slow down not do big pumps, by the sounds of the report they hit a vein in his leg.

I would never charge a local over money, if that is true he signed his own death over money. Sad to hear but i met quite a few expats who just do not learn how to mix with the locals. once the first shot where fired in his house he should have fixed his problem.

have you ever noticed something about foreigners being murdered here in the philippines ? well I have ,almost all foreigners that get murdered he either own property through wives or girlfriends or are in business with family members of their wives or girlfriends.not heard of many guys who RENT a property getting done over .why is this the case ? would it be because there would,nt be anyone to pay the rent so poor widow or g f gets kicked out of the property .so the moral of this story is RENT not buy if you want to stay alive and enjoy your retirement here in the philippines have a nice day :thumbsup:

Errrr, well, each to his own I guess Tiger. Maybe the occassional wife/gf is into that stuff but I've heard first hand, stories from other guys where the furniture and possessions and the bank accounts are available to these ladies/girls/almost children if the guy was dead and/or gone, no house involved. Don't think it makes a lot of difference myself...

Anyway, there may be some perhaps, but not a lot of these guys getting murdered deserve to be shot down like dogs and especially right in front of family, kids etc...

R.I.P. Harry and deepest sympathies to his family

I'm not any of the above but can not see the point, its clear that he was shot and died from gun shots. What else is there to confirm?
