On July 7, 2018, Vice Mayor Alex Lubigan was traveling in a black Toyota Hilux when gunmen inside a black sports utility vehicle fired gunshots, killing the Vice Mayor on the spot.
Meanwhile, witnesses also saw another black Toyota Hilux following the black SUV, which authorities claim could possibly be the getaway vehicle of the suspects,
The brutal attack occurred around 3 pm in front of the Korean Hospital on Indang Road in Trece Martires City. Lubigan's driver, Romulo Guillemer, was also killed, while his security aide, Romeo Edrinal, was critically injured and taken to the hospital.
Initially, news and political analysts thought that Vice Mayor Lubigan was on the list of politicians involved in illegal drugs as his death came in the same week when the assassinations of two mayors, Antonio Halili of Tanauan City, Batangas; and Ferdinand Bote of General Tinio, Nueva Ecija.
However, Cavite police chief Senior Superintendent William Segun said Vice Mayor Lubigan was not on the drug list therefore, the killing was politically motivated.
