Davao City village chief survives ambush

From the Sun Star-Davao (Dec 5): Davao City village chief survives ambush

A VILLAGE chieftain survived an ambush staged by suspected members of the New People’s Army (NPA) in Barangay Alambre, Toril in Davao City around 1:10 p.m. Saturday.

Davao City Police Office spokesperson Milgrace Driz identified the victim as Generoso Bacalso, chieftain of Daliaon Plantation village.

Chief Inspector Driz said Bacalso and village council member Docris Daug were on their way home onboard a motorcycle when three unidentified armed men shot the victim several times.

Bacalso was hit on his hand and was able to speed off his motorcycle towards a safe place.

Government troopers, who were in the area at that time, were able to shoot the perpetrators, killing one of the suspected rebels.

Driz said that according to reports, the victim earlier accused the NPA rebels over the 10 missing workers of a water project in the barangay.
