According to a report in this newspaper, a family of 12 in Barangay Gibitngil, Medellin Town, reportedly tried to take their own lives after suffering from mental distress following the 6.9-magnitude earthquake that struck northern Cebu.

Medellin police chief Police Major Manuel Cabanlit said they immediately responded along with personnel from the local government unit and the Municipal Social Welfare and Services Office after receiving a report that the family members --including an eight-year-old child and a pregnant woman-- were reportedly unable to communicate properly and were poised to commit suicide.

A team from the Regional Health Unit and the visiting Manila medical team has reportedly provided psychological first aid to the family.
