Batac rescue. The search, rescue and retrieval (SRR) team composed of
the City Risk Disaster and Management Office, Philippine Air Force, Philippine
Coast Guard and the Bureau of Fire Protection-Batac retrieve the body of the
drowned victim identified as Brian Rabanal, 29 years old, single, and resident
of Brgy. Quiling Norte last October 16 at 1:00 pm. The victim, along with his
family were on a picnic at the Garasgas River bank in the morning of October 15
where he got drunk. By noontime, they decided to go home but he took a shortcut
by swimming across the Garasgas River where authorities believed he drowned. The
SRR Team went on a full search and rescue operations right after the family
reported the incident but they had to halt at 6 pm. The barangay tanods of
Quiling Norte were on guard at the area until the resumption of the search and
retrieval operations on the morning of October 16 when they retrieved the
victim. (Photos courtesy of Arvin Francis Lumang)
