A 37-year-old man died after he was ran over by a commuter train of the Philippine National Railway (PNR) Saturday morning in Pandacan, Manila.
The victim was identified as Virgilio Lagrimas, a plastic and bottle scavenger.
Reports said Lagrimas was walking along the train tracks around 9:45 a.m. when the train arrived.
Train operator Leo Luaras said he honked the train’s horn to warn Lagrimas. However, he suspected that the victim had a hearing problem because he stayed on the tracks.
