According to the police, the sister of the female victim came to visit the couple and found them lifeless inside their house. She immediately sought help from a local vendor, alias “Sef,” who then reported the incident to Ormoc City Police Station 3 (OCPS3) around 9:40 am.
Responding officers confirmed both victims had sustained multiple stab wounds. The house was found in disarray, with belongings scattered throughout, indicating robbery as a possible motive.
