Pagala said the incident happened at 9:00 p.m. while Ramilo was having his dinner shortly after he parked his driven ambulance inside the subdivision.
"Ramilo was confronted by some of his neighbors including Alcantara and told him to park the vehicle somewhere else for it has been used by patients infected by coronavirus desease (COVID-19)", said Pagala.
He said Ramilo explained that the vehicle has been used only by frontliners like doctors and nurses and that it is properly disenfected daily by the hospital crews after being used. "But Alcantara did not buy it until he pulled a gun and had it fired on the ground. But the slug after hitting a hard object ricochetted hitting Ramilo", Pagala said.
