00:00A two-year-old girl was killed in Tondo, Manila, after a pickup truck ran over her neighbor's car.
00:09The victim refused to speak.
00:11This is Beya Pinlak's report.
00:16While the children were playing in Masinop Street in Tondo, Manila,
00:20they saw a two-year-old girl, Jiza, walking alone from her grandfather's house.
00:27Jiza was about to cross the road when a pickup truck ran over her neighbor's car.
00:33The child fell down the road and was completely rolled over by the car.
00:38The driver did not notice that the child was in front of the car.
00:44When he left, he ran over the child.
00:48This is a reckless imprudence resulting in homicide.
00:54Jiza was brought to the hospital when he was injured, but he was declared dead on arrival.
01:00Jiza's mother's heart was broken when she heard that the child, who is considered a miracle baby of the family,
01:06was going to be buried today.
01:08According to her, she just went out to buy food.
01:12When I came back, my child was no longer alive.
01:15I swore that I would let her go because I left my child.
01:21But I don't want that to happen to my child.
01:24It's not that easy for them to pay for the life of my child.
01:29They will give me money.
01:31They will give me what they did to you.
01:35We tried to get hold of the suspect who was detained in the Manila District Traffic Enforcement Unit,
01:41but he refused to give a statement.
