Police say they have already secured CCTV footage in the area.
Mr Jumalon's broadcasts are usually aired on 94. 7 Gold Mega Calamba FM Facebook page, which has around 2,400 followers.
The DJ's wife took him to hospital immediately after The Incident , but it is understood doctors pronounced him dead upon arrival.

The President posted on X that he has instructed The Police to conduct " a thorough investigation to swiftly bring The Perpetrators to justice. "
