Ricky Rivero, 39, sustained multiple stab wounds from alleged suspect Hans Ivan Ruiz inside his apartment at Masikap St., V. Luna, Barangay Pinyahan, Quezon City early this morning, according to a report by Philippine Entertainment Portal. Barangay Pinyahan authorities said Rivero and the suspect have known each other for 5 months now through Facebook. It was only last night at around 11:00 p.m. that they finally decided to meet in person.
The actor/director allegedly brought Ruiz to his apartment where the incident happened. Police report said the suspect stabbed Rivero 10 times at around 3:00 a.m. this morning using a bread knife after the Rivero refused to give him money. The actor/director was able to run outside his apartment and call for help. Luckily, some bystanders brought him to the hospital.
The suspect, on the other hand, tried to escape with Rivero’s laptop and other belongings but came back to clean the crime scene. Authorities found the knife that the suspect used inside a fire truck at the Barangay Hall.
Rivero is currently being treated at the Philippine Heart Center while the Quezon City police was able to arrest the suspect.
