By Jonas Reyes

SUBIC BAY FREEPORT – A Korean financer in a casino was found behind the Pier One Moonbay Marina restaurant after allegedly shooting himself in the left temple this Wednesday morning here.
According to the SBMA Law Enforcement Department (LED) chief Col. Vicente Tolentino, two female joggers found Park Jin Sung lying on beach behind the restaurant at 6:15am. The witnesses flagged down LED Viking Patrol Allan Tolentino, who was patrolling the area on his bike.
The bike patrol officer alerted the Emergency Response Team of the SBMA Dispensary, who immediately responded to the incident. Responding Doctor Arlene Cesa found the victim still gasping for breath, but noted that the victim had already shot himself on the left temple with a 9mm handgun.
The victim, a resident of Ayala in Alabang, succumbed to his wound before the EMT could save his life. The victim’s handgun was found underneath his body while ammunitions of the said gun were found lined up on a concrete structure where the victim sat.
Tolentino said that the driver of the victim confirmed that the two arrived in Subic Bay Freeport at 4am, a few hours before the incident, and that they were checked in at the Diamond Hotel in separate rooms. The driver also disclosed that the victim never even went to his room.
Currently, the LED and the Philippine National Police (PNP) are conducting a joint investigation on the matter as the body was removed from the scene.
