Quezon City Police District’s Masambong Police Station chief, Lt. Col. Rodrigo Soriano, identified the victim by her nickname “Apple,” described to be in her early 30s, with a flower tattoo on her left arm and a tribal tattoo on her lower back.
Upon checking, he saw the bloodied victim running in an alley towards Agham Road where she fell on the ground and died due to multiple stab wounds on her body. Police said Apple was included in the Directorate for Intelligence drug watchlist and a member of a drug group previously led by a certain Gilbert Marbella, alias “Gambit,” who died in a shootout with cops last September 6.
