MANILA, Philippines – A fetus was found late Saturday night, placed inside a mayonnaise jar and dumped in a garbage pile in Manila.
The male fetus, between four and five months old, was discovered by 59-year-old scavenger Ernesto Gonzales while he was sifting through the garbage for materials he could salvage and sell.
Senior Police Officer 3 Dennis Paul Javier of the Manila Police District (MPD) homicide section said that the discovery was made at around 10 p.m., Saturday, at a garbage pile along Ayala Avenue in Ermita.
Javier revealed that Gonzales had picked up the mayonnaise bottle with the intention of cleaning it up and selling it but was surprised to find a fetus inside.
The scavenger immediately reported his discovery to the nearest MPD station. The fetus was brought to the St. Harold funeral parlor for safekeeping while homicide investigators conduct follow-up operations to determine who disposed of the body in the trash pile.

Is the Garbage Collector back?
Body in sack fished out of Pasig, By Jeannette Andrade
Philippine Daily Inquirer, 02/26/2010
The body of an unidentified street gang member, believed to be a victim of summary execution, was found Friday morning stuffed into a sack and dumped in the Pasig River in Manila.
Manila Police District homicide section investigators described the man to be between 45 and 55 years old, 5-foot-7 inches tall, fair-skinned, of medium build and with several front teeth missing. He wore a green t-shirt, black short pants and bore the Commando gang tattoo on his body.
The Commando gang is usually composed of members who have been charged with crimes and have been jailed.
The corpse, which was stuffed head first into a violet rice sack, was found with a towel and brown packaging tape wrapped around the head, steel wire lopped around the neck and feet, and hands bound with plastic straw.
(And I continue to wonder if this crime to related to these ... http://metrocrimescene.blogspot.com/search/label/packaging%20tape)
PO2 Gerry Amores of the MPD homicide section said the body was fished out of the portion of the Pasig River along Muelle del Industria Street, Barangay 282 Zone 26, in Binondo at around 6:40 a.m.
Amores said the floating sack, with the feet of the victim jutting out, was first spotted by a concerned citizen who immediately informed SPO3 Reynaldo San Andres of the Lawton outpost of the MPD Ermita station 5.

Executions in QC
2 bodies dumped in QC
By Nancy C. Carvajal
Philippine Daily Inquirer, 11/29/2009
The bodies of two men believed to be victims of summary execution were found Sunday morning in Quezon City.
PO3 Joselito Gagaza of the Quezon City Police District’s Criminal Investigation and Detection Unit said the victims, whose heads were wrapped in packing tape, have yet to be identified.
Both had apparently been strangled to death because of the marks on their necks, he added. One of the men had a nylon cord tied around his neck while the other had an iron chain around his neck, he added.
NOTE : the report made no mention if the victims were stabbed or shot (which were usually seen in the other victims) and in this case, the victims were not wrapped in garbage bags
Henry Lomidao, a barangay tanod (neighborhood watchman), found the bodies at around 4:30 a.m., on Sunday, along Union Avenue Extension, Gloria III, in Barangay Culiat.
Gagaza said one of the victims could be a former inmate because he had a BCJ tattoo. BCJ stands for Batang City Jail.
The victim with the BCJ tattoo was described as between 35 and 40 years old, 5’6” in height, of slim build and with fair complexion. He was dressed in a black pair of cargo pants and a white long-sleeved shirt, which was worn over a black T-shirt and an undershirt.
On the other hand, the other victim was described as 5’3” in height, of medium build and clad in a pair of gray pants and blue shirt with long sleeves.
Gagaza said it appeared that both victims had been killed somewhere else and their bodies were only dumped in the area.

Ex-soldier stopped from suicide jump
Half-naked ex-soldier stopped from suicide jump
By Frinston Lim, Inquirer Mindanao
10/05/2009
TAGUM CITY, Philippines—Tension gripped residents in this city as a former soldier climbed a 140-foot telecommunications tower in an apparent suicide attempt early Monday morning.
Albert Carbo, 51, was safely brought down by rescue volunteers after a two-hour standoff, according to Senior Inspector Eleuterio Hernando, an officer of the Tagum City police station.
The incident began at past 7 a.m. when residents saw a man, with only his briefs on, scale up the Sun Cellular cellsite tower in Barangay Magugpo West, Hernando said.
“He is apparently suffering a nervous breakdown,” Dr. Arnel Florendo of the city health office told reporters. Florendo was among the first to talk to the victim as soon as he was safely led down the tower.
“The victim was hallucinating that someone or something is constantly pursuing him,” Florendo said, adding he is recommending a psychiatric evaluation of the victim's condition in order to help him.

boy with power ring found dead
a report from the Cebu Daily News
By Chris Ligan, 07/26/2009
http://globalnation.inquirer.net/cebudailynews/metro/view/20090726-217299/Boy-with-power-found-dead
A 17-year-old boy was found hanging by the neck in his house in barangay Bangkal, Lapu-Lapu City at dawn Saturday.
The dead boy was found by his mother under their house.
An electrical cord was tied around his neck and the other end was tied to the bamboo slats of the house’s elevated flooring, a height of about eight feet, said PO3 Candido Barenque of the Lapu-Lapu City Police Office.
Police have recommended an autopsy to determine the cause of death and whether foul play was involved.
The teenager was last seen in a drinking session with friends.
The boy’s parents told police their son started acting strangely after he told them he found a ring a few days back.
The boy claimed that the ring gave him extra strength.
After his revelation, the parents said they noticed the teenager behaving unusually.
He was more hotheaded and depressed in recent days.
The parents said the boy explained that he was depressed because he failed to complete a task that would “give him additional powers”.
On Friday night, the boy asked money from his parents and had a drinking session with friends.
The mother said she didn’t notice her son come home.
She went out of the house looking for him only to find him hanging by the neck under their house about 2 a.m.
