A member of the LGBTQ community was shot dead in broad daylight in Mati City, Davao Oriental, in what police suspect may be a case of robbery or a personal grudge.

The victim, identified by Mati City Police as Niño Dagsuan—more commonly known as “Mark” Dagsuan—was a chicken vendor and a resident of Madang. According to Brigada News Philippines, Dagsuan was gunned down on the street, sustaining 11 gunshot wounds.

Police Major Randy Galicia, Deputy Chief of Police of Mati City PNP, noted the unusual details of the crime. Dagsuan’s bag, which contained his cellphone, was missing.

However, his gold necklace was left untouched, raising doubts about robbery being the sole motive.

What caught their attention was the number of gunshot wounds—11 in total—which may suggest a deep personal anger or intent to inflict extreme harm, said Major Galicia.

As of now, authorities have not identified any persons of interest.

The investigation is ongoing, with police looking into both robbery and personal grudge angles as possible motives behind the killing.

The case has sparked concern among residents and LGBTQ advocates, who are calling for justice and a thorough investigation.

The PNP is appealing to the public for any information that may assist in solving the case.

Meanwhile, Mark Dagsuan’s community remembers him as a hardworking vendor whose life was taken far too soon.

News, photos or videos that arouse the interest of netizens would often go viral on social media, due to the attention netizens give them. These viral posts appeal to the emotions of netizens, and in rare cases, such could also happen to ordinary people, making them very relatable.
