A SEXAGENARIAN died after he was hit by three vehicles and was ran over at Araneta Street, Barangay Sum-ag, Bacolod City Sunday evening.

Police identified the fatality as Eduardo Enriquez, 62, of Purok Magayon, Barangay Sum-ag.

Police Captain Jun Ray Batadlan, chief of Police Station 9, said the victim was crossing at Araneta Street when he was hit by a motorcycle at about 8:40 p.m.

The victim died on the spot.

Batadlan said the driver of the bus voluntarily surrendered at the station while the driver of the motorcycle and tricycle fled.

He said there’s a possibility that the drivers failed to notice the victim because the area was dark.
