THE suspect in the Quiapo road rage shooting who was captured in Masbate on Friday expressed remorse for killing cyclist Mark Vincent Garalde.
“Please forgive me. I know I can’t return the life of your loved one but I really didn’t mean to do that. I’m very sorry. I lost my senses and I did not want to do that,” said suspect Vhon Martin Tanto, who was identified by witnesses and through a closed-circuit television video footage.
Tanto was brought to the Department of Justice the same day for inquest proceedings. He is also facing frustrated murder for seriously injuring an 18-year-old student, who was hit by a stray bullet.
Tanto recalled that the altercation began when his car, a red Hyundai Eon, nearly collided with Garalde’s bicycle.
