Missing boy swept by floodwaters found dead in Bukidnon river

A 6-year-old boy whose body was recovered from the Pulangi River in Bukidnon after being swept away by floodwaters during a family motorcycle trip on July 13 has been identified by his grandmother and older brother. The tragedy occurred when the boy and his 12-year-old brother were carried away by strong currents while crossing a spillway with their father. The older brother was later found dead in the Katipunan River after becoming entangled in tree debris. Rescue efforts involved coordination between local police and disaster risk reduction offices, with the younger boy's body discovered downstream from the initial sighting. Their father survived after being rescued by residents.
