Suspected ASG sympathizer guns down man in Jolo

From the Philippine News Agency (Dec 2): Suspected ASG sympathizer guns down man in Jolo

A suspected Abu Sayyaf Group (ASG) sympathizer shot and wounded a 34-year-old man whom they believed was a military intelligence agent in Jolo, Sulu province Tuesday afternoon.

The incident took place at around 2:15 p.m. at Port Area, in Jolo.

Brig. Gen. Alan Arrojado, Joint Task Group Sulu commander, identified the victim as Teodymar Lee, a resident of Airport Road, Barangay San Raymundo, Jolo.

Arrojado said Lee was standing by the roadside when a still unidentified member of the Ajang-Ajang Group, an affiliate of the ASG, appeared out of nowhere and shot the victim once with a .45 caliber pistol.

The suspect quickly fled aboard a motorcycle while Lee sustained a gunshot wound at his right cheek.

The victim is now undergoing treatment at Integrated Provincial Health Office in Jolo.

Pursuit operations are still ongoing. Recovered from the crime scene were a .45 caliber shell and slug.
