Three grade 11 students and two out-of-school youths were injured after being stabbed by another grade 11 student near their school in Sta. Cruz, Occidental Mindoro, on Monday night.

According to PCpt. Aldrin Tividad, officer in charge of the Sta. Cruz Municipal Police Station, the stabbing incident occurred around 7:30 p.m. outside Sta. Cruz National High School. 

Investigations reveal that a conflict had already arisen between the victims and the 16-year-old suspect, who is also a grade 11 student, while they were still inside the school compound.

The victims reportedly approached the suspect to talk, but the suspect suddenly pulled out a knife.

"Base doon sa mga estudyante na nasaksak ay sa loob pa lang ng school ay nagkaroon na ng kursunada , ngayon noong naglabasan na sila… ‘yung naglabasan  ay nilapitan ‘yung nangursunada para kausapin kung bakit,” said Tividad.

“Ayon naman sa kanila bigla na lang nanaksak itong ating suspek at nagkaroon na ng rambulan,” he added.

The three 17-year-old students and two out-of-school youths,  both aged 19, sustained injuries to various parts of their bodies.

The victims were first rushed to the District Hospital but were later transferred to the Provincial Hospital in the town of Mamburao.

The responding police arrested the 16-year-old suspect and recovered a knife used in the crime. 

The suspect has been charged with multiple frustrated murder.
