Woman killed in carjacking incident at QC meditation center


A woman was shot dead in what police considered a carjacking incident at a meditation center in Quezon City early Wednesday morning. The victim, initially identified as Marie Teresita Tiago, was heading into the Brahma Kumaris Meditation Center when she was attacked, radio dzBB's Allan Gatus reported.
The incident occurred in front of the meditation center at the corner of Kamuning Road and T. Gener Street shortly after 6 a.m. Police cited witnesses who said a man shot the victim just as she was about to enter the meditation center, where she was a student. Initial investigation showed the man then took her maroon Hyundai Accent and even ran over the victim with it while fleeing. Police are now tracking down the suspect. The incident was the latest in a series of violent crimes since Tuesday night, when four armed men blocked the car of a woman in Quezon City and shot her dead with high-powered firearms. Before dawn Wednesday, the brutalized body of a man was found inside a car, also in Quezon City. — LBG, GMA News
