Two of three suspects in the killing of an eight-year-old girl in Timoga, Barangay Buru-un, Iligan City have been arrested. The suspects are 24 and 30 years old. The 24-year-old man was arrested during a pot session while the 30-year-old suspect was arrested on July 2, 2025 during a buy-bust operation. Authorities are still pursuing the 29-year-old suspect, as of this writing. The victim was reported missing on June 5, 2025 after she went swimming at a stream. Her lifeless body was found on a rock at a grassy area near the stream four days later on June 9. Based on initial investigation, the victim may have been killed by strangulation.

Teachers in Sarangani brave flooded river to get home
Several teachers were caught in a dangerous situation as they attempted to cross a swollen river after heavy rains triggered flooding in Sitio Banlas, Barangay Kihan, Malapatan, Sarangani. The incident happened on Thursday, June 19, 2025. According to one of the teachers, Jailene Tusan, who uploaded the video, they were on their way home from Akbual Elementary School in Barangay Upper Suyan when they saw the river's rough waters. To get across and return home safely, some concerned residents volunteered to assist the teachers through the strong current. Tusan said there is no bridge in the area, which was why they had to cross the river by riding habal-habal motorcycles. GMA Regional TV One Mindanao is reaching out to the school officials for a statement, as of this writing. Meanwhile, in Zamboanga City, floodwaters submerged parts of Sta. Catalina, including the open field of an elementary school on Friday, June 20, 2025. Parents also struggled fetching their children from school because classrooms were also affected. A parent has called on the government to address the persistent flooding at the school every during downpour. 'Kung aabot sa gobyerno, sila kung ano ang maitulong nila roon, at least siyempre yung epekto roon sa mga bata,' a parent, Javier Munap Amirul, said. In Zamboanga Sibugay, floodwaters entered the houses in Purok Uno, Veterans Village, Ipil town due to continuous rainfall. State weather bureau PAGASA said the flooding in some parts of Mindanao is due to the Intertropical Convergence Zone. In its forecast early morning on Saturday, June 21, 2025, PAGASA said the ITCZ would bring cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms over the Zamboanga Peninsula, BARMM, SOCCSKSARGEN, Western Visayas, Negros Island Region, and Palawan, and partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms over the rest of Mindanao. —GMA Regional TV News
