The victim was brought to a hospital but the attending physician, Dr. Juniver Flores, declared him dead on arrival.

Sereñas said they are still investigating the motive for the killing and are determining the identity of the attackers.

He said the shooting could either be work-related or due to a land dispute. He did not elaborate.
