A former member of the Barangay Intelligence Network in Dumaguete was shot dead by still unidentified suspects in Purok Orchids, Sitio Canday-ong in Barangay Calindagan in the city Monday.
Sherwin Loyloy, 38, succumbed to multiple gunshot wounds from a .45 caliber pistol, and seven spent shells of the same caliber were recovered at the crime scene.
Police said Loyloy was on his way home to Banilad from an alleged gambling den and was tailed by three suspects on a motorcycle. When they reached Purok Orchids, a back-rider alighted and shot the victim in the back several times.
