A 41-year-old man was found dead outside an establishment in Vigan City morning on August 25, 2024 after spending the night with a friend.

The victim, identified as Reynante Andallo, a resident of Caoayan, Ilocos Sur, was found lying on cardboard behind a baggage counter.

His friend, who reportedly went to buy food, was surprised to find Andallo unresponsive when he returned.

"Sinabi niya noong August 24, nag-inuman silang dalawa sa lugar na 'yun. Then the following morning, 6 a.m., 'yung isa nagpaalam na bibili ng pagkain. Pagbalik ng alas-otso, 'yun na-surprise na lang siya na hindi na nagre-respond [si Andallo]," PLTCOL Reynaldo Mendoza, Jr., Officer-in-Charge of the Vigan City Police Station, said.

According to Andallo’s family, the victim had been begging at the market and had not returned home for three days.

They are convinced that no foul play was involved in the incident.

Andallo was known for his drinking habits and was also suffering from an illness.

"Nagpunta siya sa Vigan at tatlong araw, tatlong gabing hindi umuuwi. Kaya susunduin ko sana kahapon pero namatay naman na... kapag nakakainom siya, hindi na siya kumakain," Evangeline Andallo, the victim's mother, said.
