Manila: A taxi rammed into a hearse in Quezon City, sending a corpse flying out of the vehicle on to a pavement before being run over by another vehicle.

Quezon City investigators cannot decide whether they should file homicide charges against the taxi driver, Jimmy Bautista, as the victim was already dead before he met with the accident.

Sounds like Manila has some stupid police officers (no, I haven't read the article to see if something ameliorates the stupidity displayed in the quoted part).

Nope. Their stupidity is unassailable. (The family of the "victim" ain't too bright, neither.)
