Man killed because he didn’t know Wonder Girls "Nobody"

[ansohi.livejournal.com]

We all know that the hit song, Nobody by the Wonder Girls is a global phenomenon. But no one would have expected this. A man in the Philippines was apparently stabbed in the stomach and hit in the head till he was almost dead because he didn't know the song, Nobody.



His name was Leo Santos, 28, and he was killed by 4 men from Tondo, Manila. The knife used was even left in the guy's body and the whole murder was because he doesn't know the song 'Nobody' by Wonder Girls.

Santos, an electrician from Mahomas Compound, Tondo, Manila was stabbed 2 times in the stomach and hit to death on 26th August. He died last Thursday at the Memorial Medical Center after succumbing to his fatal injuries..

The Manila Police District-Homicide Section are now looking for the suspects Jansen Maglanque, Jonar Balagtas, Rodolfo Aguas and Joseph (alias) for alleged murder.

According to information released by the investigation team, Leo Santos was walking along the Corregidor Street around 2am when Joseph was singing Nobody by Wonder Girls. Leo asked him, "What are you singing?"

The suspect, Joseph, got irritated because Leo doesn't know the song he was singing. Joseph then punched Leo in the face and the other suspects joined in beating Leo to death. One of the suspects (the news didn't say who) even stabbed Leo in the stomach 2 times before all of them ran away.

The family didn't report the case immediately, only choosing to make a police report yesterday afternoon because the family decided that taking care of Leo's hospital issues and funeral arrangement were much more important.

what the heck!

[sincronia.livejournal.com]

Surely it couldn't have been the only reason... People at 2AM can be pretty crazy (like myself) and/or shady. D: Poor guy, RIP~

[albeitalways.livejournal.com]

nope, you're right it's not the only reason. 90% of the time for cases like these the suspects are under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs and already have issues with the victim long before the killing took place.

stuff like this happen all the time, and this coming from a tabloid in the country i'm not surprised.

D:
not even cassies are that hardcore.

anyway, i don't like thinking 'he died because he didn't know the song'.

i saw this earlier but i didn't think it had anything to do with the song. wow this is just uhm, insane

[maisoui.livejournal.com]

Yeah same. I think the real problem is that the guy was probably drunk or something.

[shanny-w.livejournal.com]

I hope they can trace the prints on the weapon to someone.... but it was probably some young kid that never had their prints taken.

[beauty0fparting.livejournal.com]

in the philippines, even if they find fingerprints on the weapon, it would be useless unless they already have the suspect in custody... there's no ID system in there so it doesn't really help...

[albeitalways.livejournal.com]

lol. you know, i'm kind of jaded to these kinds of news happening since they're kind of common. especially in tondo. it's the kind of place you don't go to if you don't know what to do and who to know.

honestly, the guy's death was brought upon not bc he didn't know the song, the people who killed him are most likely stoned to death and/or doing drugs. this is common scenario here, so i'm not really surprised.

although it's a first that kpop got involved in it. ;P

[hwaitings.livejournal.com]

this, and it's honestly like a death wish to walk around in tondo at 2AM.
it's kind of sad how we filipinos are so used to hearing stuff like this everyday. :(

I have to admit that I've never listened to this song either.
Should I be worried now?

[youseemerolling.livejournal.com]

Oh you should be worried by now. *evil wink*
