9 Cagayan cops survive landmine blast

From the Philippine Star (Dec 19): 9 Cagayan cops survive landmine blast

BAYOMBONG, Nueva Vizcaya , Philippines – Nine policemen narrowly cheated death in a landmine explosion in interior Piat town in Cagayan last Sunday, according to belated reports.
The policemen, who belong to the regional safety battalion, were on security patrol along the provincial road in remote Baung village when the blast occurred just near them, said Senior Superintendent Gregorio Lim, Cagayan police director. A barrage of gunfire from suspected communist rebels then ensued, forcing the policemen to run for their safety until they were able to fire back. The rebels then withdrew toward the hinterlands.

  1. Merry Christmas courtesy of the NPA. These guys sent condolences the other day to the families of those childrend who died in the Connecticut shooting but apparently have no qualms creating Filipino widows and orphans. What hypocrisy, especially during the Christmas season, a time for peace and love. Apparently the atheist NPA Grinches have no intention of observing a holiday ceasefire.
