From the Mindanao Examiner blog site (Nov 2): Government militia killed in ambush

Two masked gunmen shot dead a pro-government militia in an attack in the town of Naga in the southern Philippine province of Zamboanga Sibugay, police said Saturday.

Police said the 26-year old Bryan Talas died instantly from the ambush which occurred in Purok 3 in Baluno village. The attackers, one of them wearing a black bonnet and a pair of military short pants, escaped after the ambush.

Talas was assigned with the army’s 16th Special Forces under Captain Nocky Siao. Police investigators said they recovered bullet shells of M16 automatic rifle used in the killing of Talas.

Police said the militia was shot at least 5 times. No individual or group claimed responsibility for the attack which was just 100 meters away from the army barracks.

The motive of the attack is still unknown.
