As Philenews reported, a private security guard protecting the targeted company's building alerted the police in the night. Law enforcement immediately responded to the scene. Initial findings suggest that two individuals on a black motorcycle without license plates approached the broker's office.

The security guard was unable to provide details about their appearance, as the perpetrators wore helmets throughout the incident. After dismounting from the motorcycle, they fired several shots at the building before fleeing.

As a result of the gunfire, the front window of the office and part of the office enclosure were shattered. Police immediately cordoned off the area, and an investigation is currently underway.

At this time, no additional details have been released regarding the alleged motives for the incident or the name of the company whose office was targeted. When more details emerge, the article will be updated.
