Two construction workers were injured after a farmer suddenly attacked them with a bolo while they were resting under a tree in Solsona, Ilocos Norte.

Police said one of the victims tried to run but was chased down and struck by the suspect. Both men were rushed to the hospital and are now recovering.

Authorities arrested the suspect and seized the bolo used in the attack. Investigators believe the attack stemmed from an earlier dispute.

The suspect remains in police custody and has not given a statement.
