Strong & Brave - Antonia Raissa Dawn Laurel

Antonia Raissa Dawn Laurel


A LAW student lost both her legs while another had to have one of her legs amputated following the blast that hit the final day of the 2010 Bar exams at the De La Salle University in Manila Sunday (Sept. 26, 2010).


The 25-year-old Laurel, a 2nd year law student at San Sebastian College, was among the 44 people injured in a melee between alleged warring fraternities.


She is now recovering at Philippine General Hospital’s (PGH) intensive care unit.


Writing her answers to questions from ABS-CBN’s Julius Babao, Laurel said that she was in the “wrong place at the wrong time.”
