Japanese man shot dead in central Philippines
MANILA (Kyodo) -- A Japanese man was shot dead last week at his house on the Philippine resort island of Cebu, apparently by a disgruntled man who used to work for him, police said Monday.
They said 57-year-old Makoto Honda was shot several times in the chest and other parts of the body around 1:30 a.m. last Thursday at his house in Canagahan, a village in San Remigio town in northern Cebu.
Two witnesses -- a 20-year-old Filipino woman who lives with Honda, and her brother -- told police that two gunmen barged into the house, one of whom proceeded immediately upstairs and shot Honda several times.
The alleged shooter, who used to work for Honda as a helper, was arrested several hours later and remains in custody, while his accomplice was still being sought, police said.
Honda had been living in Cebu for at least three years.
