Robbery seen behind Tetangco brother’s slay

ANGELES CITY – Policemen, in their initial findings, found robbery as the real motive in the killing of Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) Governor Armando Tetangco’s brother and two others.
Three persons were found dead inside a SUV Ford Expedition parked in a vacant lot near the Korean Christian chapel along Friendship Avenue in Barangay Pampang, Angeles City on Thursday.
The victims were identified as Rene Tetangco, 42, of Apalit town; Florencio Yap, 44, of the City of San Fernando; and Dennis Guinto, also of the City of San Fernando. Yap is the son of the owner of Yap Bun King Hardware at the said city.
All of the victims sustained gunshot wounds on the head and chest when found by members of the Scene of the Crime Operations (Soco) based in Camp Olivas, City of San Fernando.
Tetangco’s body was found at the vehicle’s front passenger seat. Those of Yap and Guinto were found at the rear seat and back of the SUV compartment, respectively.
Police said Tetangco and Yap are big time “sabungeros.” They reportedly left on Tuesday in Mexico cockfight and proceeded to King’s Poker Club.
Tetangco and Yap could have won big money on poker and it could be the reason behind the killing.
On Friday, Central Luzon Police Director Arturo Cacdac Jr. formed Task Force “Yap, Tetangco” to conduct a follow-up investigation on the case.
Cacdac said the task force will be headed by Senior Superintendent Wendy del Rosario, deputy regional director for operations.
The task force will be composed of Philippine National Police (PNP) Criminal Investigation and Detection Unit (CIDU), Angeles City Police, PNP Crime Laboratory Office and Regional Intelligence Unit (RIU).
Cacdac said he directed the task force to solve within 24 hours the killing of Tetangco, Yap, and Guinto.
“The killer or killers of the victims should be put behind bar as soon as possible,” Cacdac said.
Angeles City Police Director Danilo Bautista said that Joseph Maderso, a security guard of Bavarian Lions restaurant, found the bodies and immediately informed Police Station 5 about the incident.
Bautista said Yap entered at the King’s Poker Sports Club in Angeles City around 9 p.m. Tuesday and left around 4:45 a.m. together with Tetangco.
He said the killers, after shooting the victims, dragged Guinto’s body into the back compartment and drove the SUV to the vacant lot where it was abandoned.
A conference on the said case has been conducted by the task force commander at the Angeles City Police Office.
