From the Philippine News Agency (Jul 28): Maguindanao provincial engineer, 2 others killed in gun attack

A Maguindanao provincial engineer was killed along with his two other companions while his driver was seriously wounded after being shot by motorcycle-riding gunmen in Baragay Meta, Datu Unsay town on Thursday afternoon.

Capt. Jo-ann Petinglay, 6th Infantry Division public affairs office chief, said the shooting took place 12:30 p.m. at the highway in Barangay Meta.

Victim Engr. Landap Guinaid and three others were passing the area aboard a gray Hilux (LGK-539) when motorcycle-riding suspects, armed with M-16 automatic rifles, appeared out of nowhere and opened fire on the vehicle, killing Guinaid, his son and uncle, and wounding his driver.

"Unidentified perpetrators immediately escaped to undetermined direction. Motive is believed to be personal grudge," Petinglay said.
