The five victims were lying face down with gunshot wounds in the head and body when found by responding members of the 70 Infantry Battalion of the Philippine Army and the DRT Municipal Police.

Police investigators said that a caretaker of the place identified as Habert Prencillo arrived in the area at 10:30 a.m. Monday to deliver food for the victims, who were hired to trim the grass in the 17-hectare land.

He was later shocked upon seeing the five victims already lifeless with gunshot wounds in the head and body and being swarmed by ants.
