MANILA —A child was injured by a stray bullet in Davao Region on the eve of the midterm elections, the Commission on Elections said Monday.

"Merong nagpaputok ng baril...buhay naman po yung bata," Comelec Chairman George Garcia said.

A police blotter said motorcycle-riding individuals indiscriminately shot their firearm after stopping along a road in Barangay Meybio in Jose Abad Santos, Davao Occidental at around 2:35 a.m. on Sunday. 

A stray bullet hit the right arm of sleeping minor inside a nearby house, police said.
