Exclusive - Tawag ng Tanghalan Champion Mark Laspiñas Got Into A Motorcycle Accident! What's His Status Right Now?

Mark Laspiñas, the champion of singing contest "Tawag ng Tanghalan" on "It's Showtime", got into a motorcycle accident at Iligan City last Sunday afternoon.

Traffic investigator PO3 Aldus Tuante said in his reports that Laspiñas was on his motorcycle, going to an outing in Barangay Buru Un when a pickup truck going back to Iligan went to his path.

Emergency responders found Laspiñas unconscious under the truck. He suffered deep laceration on his left thigh and some bruises. This might hurt his chances from re-joining Tawag ng Tanghalan as a "resbaker."

Currently, he is in Mercy Community Hospital and is recovering from his surgery last Monday morning.

Laspiñas won on a back-to-back championship last November 3 and 4, but lost to theater actor Gerhard Pagusan on November 5.

He will not be pressing charges against the pickup truck’s driver under the condition that the driver will shoulder the hospital bills. However, his family is worried about the expenses after he gets discharged from the hospital.

Currently, Laspiñas is a worker in a city government office, raising two kids on his own. He has not yet claimed his prize from Tawag ng Tanghalan.
