Blast rocks mayor's house in Tacurong City

From the Philippine News Agency (Nov 8): Blast rocks mayor's house in Tacurong City

Two men riding in tandem on a motorbike fired a rifle grenade near the house of a Sultan Kudarat town mayor Thursday night, police said. No one was injured when the rifle grenade went off at about 7:30 p.m. outside the residential compound of President Quirino Mayor Emilio Salamanca along Malvar Street, Tacurong City. Salamanca is seeking reelection. According to Sr. Supt. Rolen Balquin, Sultan Kudarat police provincial director, no one was killed or injured in the grenade attack but it caused panic among the residents. Responding Army bomb disposal operatives recovered fragments of 40 mm rifle grenade in front of Salamanca’s house. “Based on our initial probe, it was a pure harassment,” Balquin said, adding that Salamanca has no threats to life prior to the grenade attack. Thursday night’s grenade attack came a day after a hand grenade exploded at the public market of Esperanza, Sultan Kudarat, about 40 kilometers from Tacurong City.... Balquin said the twin grenade attack was not related.
