DAVAO CITY, Philippines — The owner of the Davao Crocodile Park in Davao City died in a vehicular accident in Bansalan, Davao del Sur on Sunday.

Philip Dizon, 64, was traveling along the Bansalan-Balutakay Road when his three-wheeled vehicle rolled over, according to separate reports filed by the Bansalan and Davao del Sur police offices.

Dizon reportedly tried to avoid colliding with another vehicle, but he lost control of the wheel.

Aside from the crocodile park, Dizon and his family own the Dizon Farms and the Apo Highland Resorts in Barangay Kapatagan, Digos City.
