From the Philippine News Agency (May 7): Cops nab 10 in slay try vs village chief, seize 3 firearms

Police arrested 10 persons who tried to liquidate a barangay (village) captain who, in turn, cheated death after the gun of the man assigned to shoot him failed at about 11:30 p.m. Friday at Barangay Cangcahorao, Baleno, Masbate.

Village chief Jovinel Bello immediately sped towards a patrolling team from the Baleno Municipal Police Station and Municipal Police Public Safety Company.

The law enforcers cornered Ruel Bello, 30, Rico Bello, 46, Charlie Bello, 34, Joshua Laurio, 19, Dionesio Bunan, 34, Antonio Pusing, 40, Archie Bunan,19, Richard Gavina, 32, Allan Cortes, 45, and Ronilo De La Cruz, 34 -- all residents of the village.

Based on the report of the Baleno MPS to Camp Gen. Simeon A. Ola here they were having a mobile patrol in the area when they chanced upon the running victim who told them that one of the suspects shot him but the gun conked out.

The police also seized an M16 baby armalite, a .45-caliber pistol, a shotgun, ammunition and five bladed weapons from the suspects who they are now determining the private armed group affiliation.
