From GMA News (Feb 16): 14 armed men torch 8 buses at terminal in Batangas

At least 14 armed men set fire to buses in Lemery town in Batangas province before dawn Sunday, with police suspecting extortion as a possible motive.
The men wore camouflage uniforms in staging the attack on the facility of Jam Transit, radio dzBB's Paulo Santos reported.

Eight buses were destroyed in the incident, the report said.

Citing initial information, Batangas police spokesman Senior Insp. Dwight Fonte said the suspects, armed with long firearms, fled using white and blue vans.

Meanwhile, Philippine National Police chief Director General Alan Purisima's spokesman Senior Superintendent Wilben Mayor was quoted in the dzBB report as saying they are not discounting the possibility the attack stemmed from the bus firm's failure to pay so-called revolutionary taxes.

No one was initially reported hurt in the incident, even as authorities said police are now tracking down the suspects.
