    The accused were charged with robbery with homicide for conspiring to rob Benito Macam y Sy at his residence. During the robbery, one of the accused fatally wounded Leticia Macam y Tui and injured three other individuals. The issues were whether the arrest of the accused was valid and if their guilt was proven beyond reasonable doubt. The court ruled that the crimes committed constituted the complex crime of robbery with homicide since a homicide occurred during the robbery. The court also found the award of civil damages by the trial court was not in accordance with law regarding the joint and separate liability of principals.

    and employ personal violence upon the person of one Leticia Macam y Tui, thereby inflicting
    upon her serious and mortal injuries which were direct and immediate cause (sic) of her
    untimely death, and on the occasion of said offense, one Benito Macam y Sy, Salvacion Enrera
    y Escota, and Nilo Alcantara y Bautista, all sustained physical injuries which have required
    medical attendance for a period of more than thirty (30) days and which have incapacitated all
    of them from performing their customary labor for the said period of time,

    ISSUE: The issues raised by appellants can be summarized into whether or not (a) their arrest
    was valid; and (b) their guilt have been proved beyond reasonable doubt.

    RULING,: Apellants contend that the crimes committed were robbery and homicide, and not the
    complex crime of robbery with homicide. We do not agree. The rule is whenever homicide has
    been committed as a consequence or on occasion of the robbery, all those who took part as
    principals in the robbery will also be held guilty as principals of the special crime of robbery with
    homicide although they did not actually take part in the homicide, unless it clearly appears that
    they endeavored to prevent the homicide.

    Lastly, the award of civil damages made by the trial court is not in accordance with law and
    jurisprudence. The trial court overlooked the rule in Article 110 of the Revised Penal Code that
    the principals shall be "severally (in solidum)" liable among themselves.
