Baracael now in stable condition

FAR EASTERN University forward Mac Baracael, who was gunned down by an unknown assailant at around 8:30 p.m. last July 24, 2008 at the corner of Morayta and R. Papa streets, is now in stable condition.

Tamaraws head coach Glen Capacio told inboundpass.com that Baracael is now in “stable condition, but still under observation.” Television footages showed a conscious and awake Baracael being brought into an ambulance en route to Capitol Medical Center in Quezon City from Mary Chiles Hospital in Sampaloc.

Physicians said that the 6′3″ Baracael will be under observation for the next 24 hours.

Baracael was with teammates Robert Kave and Ron Cabagnot when he was shot at the back by a still unidentified assailant. Two shots were fired, and one of them pierced his lung. He was immediately rushed to Mary Chiles Hospital, where tubes were inserted to suck out blood that had accumulated in his body.

The third-year forward is currently having a splendid season, averaging 10.8 points and 3.8 rebounds in 23 minutes of action for the Tams.

inboundpass.com is one with Baracael’s family, loved ones and the entire FEU and basketball community in condemning this heinous crime, and our thoughts and prayers are with them.

    @green_animo, tignan mo ibang threads kung minsan wala na rin sa topic ang pinag-uusapan.

    ikaw nga diyan ang smart aleck. dapat kung tingin mo hindi dapat yun ang pagusapan, huwag mo na lang pansinin.

    you can react to my post but don’t deny my right to post anything i want.

    i admit i reacted to your so-called “innocent remark” unnecessarily. but i was just having fun like the rest of us here.

    even your last reply to me here in this thread is also out of topic and you also reacted to my also “innocent” remark.

    you’re eating your own words.

    its a gud thing na stable n ang condition ni mac. unfortunately, i think hndi n xa mka2laro dis season. “unfortunate” in a sense n imbes n maayos buhay n mac ngaun eh ngulo na. and i think dis wil also be d last (playing)year ni mac kht n 3rd yr plng xa,as what i’ve heard from other players. but im clarifying na im not certain about this info..
    anyway health prn nmn nya ang mas importante..
    to mac get well soon!
