A loud explosion rocked the town of Kabacan in North Cotabato shortly before midnight Monday. No one was injured.
Kabacan police chief Superintendent Leo Ajero said the explosion, which occurred in Sitio Liton, Barangay Kayaga, was meant to bring down towers of the National Grid Corp. of the Philippines in the area to try and extort money from the company.
Fortunately, none of these towers were destroyed, Ajero added.
It is not yet known what type of improvised explosive device exploded.
The attempt to blow up the electric towers in Kabacan comes in the wake of a Mindanao-wide blackout.
