Zamboanga City mayor Celso Lobregat said suspect Felin Mateo entered 2 classrooms inside the Talisayan Elementary School past 1 p.m. and started attacking students and teachers with a knife. "He attacked without any warning or provocation. It was the people and parents who killed the attacker after hearing the cries of help from students and teachers," Lobregat told radio dzMM. Three people were killed in the attack namely Grade 6 student Ces Loryn Orpiano, 12; teacher Lorna Culanon, and Ruben Flores, 64. Two teachers and 4 students were also injured and were rushed to Brent Hospital. Lobregat said Mateo had received a life sentence on a rape charge in 1981 but his sentence was commuted in 1999. He was released from prison in 2008. The mayor said Mateo decided to stay in Zamboanga City where he got a job raising chickens. Lobregat said Mateo's employer described the killer as "normal." He said that on the day of the attack, Mateo even asked for P10 SMS load from his employer's son. The mayor denied earlier reports that the killer had escaped from prison and had even held some of the students hostage. He said he had already reported the incident to Interior and Local Government Secretary Jesse Robredo and Education Secretary Armin Luistro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
