According to Police Staff Sergeant Ramon Juablar, investigator, the victim’s family thought that the victim went with his six-year-old cousin to take a bath. But, he was found floating past 1 p.m. inside the hole.
It was raining when it happened, and the child probably fell in the hole, he added.
The victim’s 17-year-old mother was at home, but she was taking care of her three-month-old baby.
