VALENCIA CITY, Bukidnon — A 21-year-old man was rushed to hospital after he was stabbed by his 15-year-old co-worker during a drinking spree Wednesday evening in Barangay Casisang, Malaybalay City.

Lt. Col. Joepet Paglinawan, Malaybalay City police chief, said the victim and the 15-year-old boy—both employees of a hardware store in Landing, Barangay Casisang—were drinking alongside colleagues when the intoxicated teenager provoked the older man to a fistfight.

The victim initially disregarded the minor’s provocations.
