A 10-year-old boy was recovering in the hospital after a thin steel bar pierced through his eyelids in Cebu City, according to Alan Domingo’s Tuesday report on “Saksi.”
According to residents, they heard the boy crying and saw his injury.
Rescuers have brought the boy to the hospital.
The steel that impaled his eyelids was used to support hanging electric wires.
The boy was only with his sibling during the incident as their parents were away due to work.
“Tinanong ko ang bata kung saan siya galing. Papunta siya sa eskwelahan. Parang biglang lang umanong [natusok] ang kanyang mata,” resident Edwin Dionio Jr. said.
(I asked the boy where he came from. He was supposed to go to school when the steel suddenly impaled his eyelid.)
Authorities are still finding out how the boy was injured.
The Cebu City Department of Social Welfare Services promised to help the boy with his treatment. —Mariel Celine Serquiña/LDF, GMA Integrated News
