Typhoon Ulysses (international name Vamco) left a massive trail of destruction in many areas in Luzon, including Metro Manila, yesterday as it headed out to the West Philippine Sea.
Two people were killed while four others went missing after typhoon Ulysses unleashed heavy rains and destructive winds in Bicol Region, an initial report from the Office of Civil Defense (OCD) disclosed Thursday.
Claudio Yucot, regional director of OCD-Bicol, identified the fatalities as Avelino Cabanela, 68, and Salva Mangubat, 70, both of Camarines Norte.
Mangubat reportedly slipped and fell headfirst on the ground from his house in Purok 1, Brgy. Gabon in Talisay town at the height of the typhoon.
Cabanela was reported to have been found dead on the roof of his house in Purok 1, Brgy. Bagasbas in Daet town.
Another fatality was reported in Atok, Benguet, a farmer who died after bamboo trees struck his shanty due to strong winds.
Four persons were reported missing during the onslaught of “Ulysses” in Camarines Norte. They were identified as Noel Macayo, of Barangay 2 in Mercedes town; and Jessy Boy Alvarez, 33, Roland Alvarez, 48, and Bobby Roderick Masaya, 19, all residents of Brgy. Pinagtigasan in Vinzons town.
Eight persons in Camarines Norte suffered from various injuries due to typhoon Ulysses, according to Yucot. Most of them suffered cuts and bruises after being hit by flying debris or fallen trees.
They were identified as Glenn Isaac, 39, Lorna Aguilar, 32, of Mercedes town; Samson Salgado, 54, Marvin Rojas, 31, of Basud town; Rommel Madi, 45, Hilario Vibal, 45, Pio Paracale, 34, of Daet town; and Olive Paul Dichoso, 11, of Vinzons town.
