In a brazen attack witnessed by viewers tuning into a live Facebook live broadcast, a radio host was fatally shot inside his home-based radio station in the southern Philippines on Sunday.
The killer gained access to broadcaster Juan Jumalon’s radio station by pretending to be an avid listener. During a live morning broadcast in Calamba town, located in Misamis Occidental province, the gunman opened fire, striking Jumalon twice, as reported by local law enforcement.

After the brutal act, the attacker made off with the victim’s gold necklace, escaping the scene in the company of an accomplice who had been waiting outside Jumalon’s home on a motorcycle, according to the police. An ongoing investigation seeks to identify the assailant and determine if the attack had any work-related motives.
Strongly denouncing the shooting, President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. declared that he had ordered the national police to pursue the perpetrators, make arrests, and bring them to justice.
