Cop killed in NegOr

From the Visayan Daily Star (Jan 29, 2020): Cop killed in NegOr (By GILBERT P. BAYORAN)

Two motorcycle-riding suspects shot and killed a 47-year-old policeman at about 7 last night along the national highway of Brgy. Tapon Norte in San Jose town of Negros Oriental.

The victim was identified by Col. Julian Entoma, officer-in-charge of the Negros Oriental Police Provincial Office, as Police Executive Master Sgt. Roldan Esmajer, who died while being treated at the Silliman Medical Center in Dumaguete City, 45 minutes after he was shot.

Police investigation showed that Esmajer, a member of the San Jose Police Station, was on his way to the police station, on board his Honda motorcycle, when he was shot by his assailant, who was on another motorcycle, without any apparent reason.

The victim succumbed to three gunshot wounds in his abdomen and chest, the Negros Oriental Police Provincial Office reported.

Entoma said they are looking into the involvement of the NPA Special Partisan Unit, as among the suspects in the killing of Esmajer.

The two suspects were described by witnesses to be wearing jackets and black helmets. They were also reported to be riding on a 150cc Suzuki Raider motorcycle.

Responding policemen failed to recover any fired cartridges at the scene of incident.*
