Woman chopped into pieces in Pampanga; cops kill suspect
MANILA, Philippines — A woman has been chopped into pieces allegedly by her partner in Angeles City, Pampanga.
The body parts of Lindsey Avelino, 28, a sales agent, were found in a washing machine, a trolley bag and the toilet of an apartment on Monday, Chief Superintendent Joel Napoloen Coronel, Central Luzon police director, said.
Police said a 9mm pistol and the victim’s head, arms, a leg and feet were found stuffed in the trolley bag.
The neighbors of the couple said they saw Avelino’s partner Eduardo Pasion, 40, hurriedly leaving their apartment carrying the trolley bag.
Pasion reportedly resisted arrest and shot it out with police officers who conducted a follow-up operation at his workplace in Barangay Pampang at around 7 p.m.
Quoting a police report, Coronel said the neighbors of the couple heard the two having an argument on Sunday.
Residents alerted the police when they noticed that Pasion was acting suspiciously while locking the door of their house.
Probers have yet to determine the motive for the killing.
