NPAs strafe cock farm in Negros Occ.

From ABS-CBN (Dec 11): NPAs strafe cock farm in Negros Occ.

BACOLOD - Suspected members of the Communist Party of the Philippines-New People's Army (CPP-NPA) rebels attacked a cock farm in La Castellana, Negros Occidental Thursday night.

Colonel Francisco Delfin, commander of the Army's 303rd Infantry Brigade, said the suspects strafed the farm and ransacked the house of Maximo Magbanua in Hacienda Jamandre, Barangay Robles.

Magbanua is a member of the Revolutionary Proletarian Army (RPA), a breakaway rebel group of the CPP-NPA.

Delfin said Magbanua exchanged fire with the rebels. He supposedly escaped but remains missing.

The suspects seized three rifles, one grenade launcher, a submachine gun, and a short firearm.

The group also kidnapped Cerilo De Asis, another RPA Alex Boncayao Brigade (RPA-ABB) member, as they fled.

Recovered from the scene were empty shells of an M-16 rifle and M-203 grenade launcher.
