00:00A male senior citizen was killed after he was hit and run while crossing the Marcos Highway in Antipolo City.
00:06Live from Antipolo City, EJ Gomez has the first news.
00:10EJ.
00:16The family of a 69-year-old man was in a state of shock after he was hit and run while crossing the Marcos Highway.
00:26The suspect who escaped also surrendered five days after the incident.
00:36A 69-year-old man fell on the road after he was hit and run on the Marcos Highway in Antipolo City.
00:44According to the police, the victim was crossing the road when he was hit by a car.
00:50The red car that was in the victim's vehicle was recovered in the crime scene.
00:56In a follow-up investigation, the suspect's car was found in the CCTV pool.
01:01The Antipolo Police immediately dispatched it for a quick investigation.
01:07In less than 24 hours, we received information.
01:10They posted it right there.
01:11In a group that sells parts of cars,
01:20someone was looking for a specific brand of that car.
01:25He was looking for a side mirror on the right and this is the color that he was looking for.
01:31The person who posted it found out that the owner of the car repair shop was the driver of the car.
01:38With the help of the information of the suspect in the shop, the police found out his identity.
01:43The beauty of it is that it's like Cinderella.
01:46We brought our investigators the missing side mirror and it perfectly fit the car that we suspected.
01:59Explained by the 47-year-old driver, he didn't think it was a person who hit him.
02:06I didn't notice it.
02:07And then?
02:08The road was dark.
02:11Didn't you feel that someone hit your car?
02:15I felt someone hit my car but I didn't notice that it was a person who hit my car.
02:22He also said that he only found out online that his license plate and car were the reason why he hit the victim.
02:30That's why he surrendered to the authorities.
02:32The victim, Oscar Carmona, was hospitalized for a day and was later brought back to life.
02:40It was very painful.
02:42It's like he just left an animal on the road.
02:48He didn't just help our father to bring him to the hospital that day.
02:57He should be the one to answer to our father.
03:01We just want justice for what he did to my father.
03:07I hope they will have mercy on me and forgive me.
03:10I'm sorry.
03:11I did something to escape.
03:14I should have helped the old man.
03:18We will charge him with reckless imprudence resulting to homicide
03:24because of the death of our victim.
03:27According to these witnesses, the victim should have bought a cigarette and a pandesal in order for the incident to happen.
03:40He ran to the double solid line, which is in the middle of the road.
03:45As you can see, the speed of the cars is fast.
03:48That's why even if he's on the pedestrian, he should be alerted to cross this wide road.
03:55Meanwhile, on Saturday, the victim, father Oscar, will be buried.
03:59That is the first news from Antipolo City.
