His mother posted on Facebook that before his death, her son told her he was going to get milk tea and would come home immediately. 

“Kuya Sabi muh mg milk tea ka lng uuwi ka kaaagd pero bakit nman ganun (You said you will just have milk tea and you will go home right away, but why was it like that?)” the mother wrote. 

His father also took to Facebook to grieve his death. 

“Mahal na mahal ka nmin nak,,,bakit mo nman kmi iniwan..(We love you so much son,,,why did you leave us…),” he wrote. 

According to the Taguig Police, a witness said that while she was doing chores, she heard a sound of something falling and saw the student lying on the ground. 

She immediately sought assistance from the barangay and the Taguig Police. A forensic team from the Southern Police District (SPD) arrived and conducted its investigation. 

An autopsy will be conducted to know the cause of death.
