General Camilo Pancratius Cascolan, chief of the Philippine National Police (PNP), has ordered a thorough investigation on the killing of an alleged drug suspect right inside a hospital in Angono, Rizal.

“We are investigating the killing,” said Cascolan when asked to comment on the reported death of Vincent Adia.

The death of Adia was reported as a case of shooting incident at around 3:30 a.m. in Barangay San Isidro in Angono town.

The police report stated that when the police went to the crime scene, Adia was already taken to the hospital.

But in a Twitter thread post of a witness to the incident, a netizen who appeared to be a hospital staff, narrated that they attended to a man who looked like a victim of extrajudicial killing.

Despite three bullet wounds in the head, medical personnel of the hospital were able to revive Adia who became "fully conscious and coherent."

The Twitter user said that they were able to get some details from the victim who claimed that he wrote the name of his attacker on a piece of paper which suddenly went missing.

The Twitter user also narrated that while they were getting information from the victim, several men who introduced themselves as policemen appeared and tried to take custody of the victim. The  cops reportedly told the hospital staff that the victim may need to be transferred to a bigger hospital.

The alleged cops were denied custody of the victim because of his unstable condition and the absence of arrest warrant.

A few hours later, an unidentified man barged inside the hospital and shot Adia dead. It happened at around 11:40 a.m. on Wednesday.

The Twitter posts were already made private even as the  account owner condemned extrajudicial killings which have been linked to the government's anti-drug war.
