1 killed, 4 injured as van rams huge tree in Kidapawan

 A 22-year-old man died while four others were injured after the passenger van they were riding crashed into a huge tree in Kidapawan City at 1 a.m. Thursday.  


“The accident occurred along the national highway in Barangay Lanao of the city,” said Lt. Col. Ramel Hojilla, Kidapawan police chief.

Hojilla identified the lone fatality as Jorney Ligo Caro, 22, of Barangay Poblacion, Kidapawan City, who died while undergoing treatment at a hospital in Kidapawan.

Wounded in the same incident were Julius Campos, Jomer Caro, Bheljun Fernando Lagmay and Dennis Denaga.

Traffic investigators said the passenger van driven by Esmael Mamansal, 36, of Kabacan, North Cotabato, was heading to Cotabato City when he suddenly lost control of the steering wheel.

The van smashed through the roadside barriers before ramming the huge tree nearby. (By Edwin Fernandez)
