The victim, Cristina Diocares, 29, and her husband Bernard Diocares, were crossing the fishpond on board a banca and while paddling, she accidentally touched the live wire connected to the house of Soledad Tejero, as evidenced by the injury on her right wrist, causing electrocution.

She was brought to the Lingayen District hospital for immediate medical attention but was pronounced dead on arrival by the attending physician.
