Business deal eyed in killing of Australian, Filipina in Olongapo

Police are looking into a restaurant business deal as one of the possible motives for the killing of  Anthony George Wilson, 61, an Australian national and Mila Bailey, 41, a Filipina inside their car in Olongapo City Friday.

The companion of the victims who was driving the car, Wayne Bailey, 71, was wounded.

The suspect in the shooting was identified as Michael McLaren, the fourth passenger in the vehicle, who escaped but was later on arrested.

According to Olongapo Police chief, Police Colonel Benjamin Sembrano,  McLaren allegedly bought a hotel and restaurant from the Baileys through cash.

However, when questioned by the Olongapo Police if he could provide proof of purchase, the suspect claimed that he did not have any as it was done through contract.

Authorities continue to investigate the incident. —Joahna Lei Casilao/LDF, GMA News
